Contemporary Black Thought: Alternative Analyses in Social and Behavioral ScienceMolefi Kete Asante, Abdulai S. Vandi SAGE Publications, 1980 - 302 pages This volume presents a collection of essays grounded in a uniquely Black understanding of the social sciences -- the disciplines of communication, psychology, sociology and social problems, history, political science and education are examined.
