Thanks Michael Afolayan.

Oyegbile is referencing the second, expanded edition of the book, to be published by Compcros in Lagos in 2023, the publication year having been moved from 2022 to 2023 in order to accommodate certain exigencies.

The new edition contains material not in the 2014 Cambridge edition, these additions being an illustrated autobiographical preface, which Oyegbile quotes from, and a selection from the powerful reviews of the first edition, further clarifying and contextualizing Abiodun's thought, preeminent among these reviews being the one by Nkiru Nzegwu, which can stand beside the book as a strategic contribution to Yoruba discourse.

Thanks 

Toyin Adepoju

Nice review. Thanks for doing this, Dr. Oyegbile. I like the reflection on Professor Abiodun's organic acquisition of knowledge through the home base. A quick point of correction, though, the book was published by Cambridge University Press in 2014. Stay well!
