This book examines the social, cultural, economic, political, and aesthetic cultural practices that make the Igbo of southeastern Nigeria unique. The essays discuss various aspects of the Igbo experience from multi- and cross-disciplinary perspectives., This book provides a unique insight into understanding the Igbo social, economic, and political world through comprehensive analyses of indigenous and foreign religious practices, issues surrounding women, literature, language, sexism in musical lyrics, films, and community development and government.

The themes covered in the book help readers appreciate the often-neglected multifaceted local and external forces that continue to shape the Igbo experience in southeastern Nigeria.
