"...A fascinating survey of debates in contemporary African philosophy... In addition, Dr. Agada defends his own philosophy, 'consolationism', a unique and original system grounded in concepts taken from the particularities of ethnophilosophy, but going beyond them to offer an ambitious philosophical synthesis with universal appeal...[a] profound and fecund philosophical work."
Bryan W. Van Norden, James Monroe Taylor Chair in Philosophy at Vassar College
"Ada Agada's latest book advances a novel comprehensive system of general metaphysics, cosmic meaningfulness, and individual existentialism that is anchored on the claim that the universe essentially is the sort of thing that should become perfect, even though it in fact never will. This book will broaden the intellectual horizons of philosophers in a variety of fields and traditions."
Thaddeus Metz, Professor of Philosophy, University of Pretoria
"Ada Agada advances an understanding of 'consolationism' as a system- building project and as an unequivocal contribution to world philosophy. As a major voice of the famed Conversational School of Philosophy, Calabar, Agada's new book further augments his role within a movement that is fast becoming one of the most vibrant spaces for philosophy on the African continent."
Sanya Osha, University of Cape Town, South Africa
"Agada's consolationism is a step in the right direction of the system-building project which must now be the focus of the contemporary African philosopher. It unveils the history and popular problems of African philosophy in a unique manner, with plausible solutions from the consolationist framework. And it is on the basis of this that I do not hesitate to pass Agada's effort, not only as a landmark achievement that contemporary African scholars should be proud of, associate, and engage with, but one that should also serve as a stepping stone for further displays of originality and expression of the uniqueness of the African intellect."

"I recommend this book to everyone as an excellent consolation to the human yearning for knowledge that may never be complete."
