Book excerpt: Ogbonnaya challenges the view that the African concept of deity is either mono- or poly-theistic and proposes communality as the foundational principal for African divinity. He describes African cosmology and examines Tertullian's idea of the Trinity, concluding that the African worldview is communitarian and the African god communal in nature.
