Reseña del libro "Skh, From Black Psychology to the Science of Being (en Inglés)"
"In using his voice, Baba Dr. Wade Ifágbęmi Sàngódáre Nobles speaks purposely and authentically with an uncompromising clarity about the science of spirit and the origins of Black psychology. Baba Dr. Nobles takes readers to places other texts in traditional psychology never go, even as he introduces to some and builds on prior knowledge for others the invisible world of spirit. This manuscript, with all of its intellectual breadth and depth, is crowning achievement in a stellar career and body of work Wade W. Nobles continues to produce and leave us. Dr. Nobles has produced a masterpiece. Indeed, this text is a legacy work!"Thomas A. Parham, PresidentCalifornia State University, Dominguez Hills"The sage wisdom of Baba Wade Nobles is helping us to reclaim that which we have forgotten and to heal the wounds from generations in which we have struggled to be. Skh: From Black Psychology to The Science of Being is dense with possibility for the liberated African mind ready to discern the very principles shared in this legacy body of work. It exemplifies an unflinching commitment to truth, to an African worldview and episteme, and to a centering of Pan African perception, knowledge, and experience. This book speaks to akwure, the principle of truth. It is an essential guide for our going forward."Grills, Ph.D. Professor, PsychologyDirector, Psychology Applied Research CenterPresident's ProfessorLoyola Marymount UniversityA pioneer in his field, and founding member of the Association of Black Psychologists, Dr. Wade Nobles life's work has been no less than a formal engagement in the on-going theoretical development and programmatic application of African (Black) psychology, African centered thought, and cultural grounding to address the liberation and restoration of the African mind and world-wide development of African people. In his new book, Dr. Nobles revolutionizes how we internalize and operationalize psychological processes and reframes how we think of psychology. Dr. Nobles discusses the advent of the discipline of Black Psychology and details its evolution to the Science of Being. With a brief critique of the inadequacy of the Western Grand narrative, the "big ideas" essential to exploring the fundamental and necessary epistemic correction will include an explication of African (BaNtu) thought and worldview. It will detail the need to "return to the source" and explore BaNtu episteme as grounding. It will engage ancient African thought as precursors to the modern appreciation of living systems (e.g., biophotons, quantum coherence, spontaneous biophotons signals, and squeezed state) and the science of Skh.
