Adapting western science to traditional African culture

Pages 1-9 | Published online: 24 Feb 2007
 

Abstract

In this paper the argument is advanced that, despite the differences between the scientific and the traditional ways of viewing nature, the two systems of thought are not incompatible. This position is reached from a review of the literature and on the basis of personal findings in the area. It is hoped that the article will clarify certain areas of ambiguities and serve as a stimulus for further debate.
