Beauty, the beautiful, the Good, Truth and Justice, humanity crave for them. The West and Africa each has its right. These values, no race can claim superiority because they are from the Almighty Creator of everything in the Universe. The booklet, African Aesthetics: An Introduction has tried to introduce these gifts as mentioned above in her own right and manner. There is a brief view of the West on the abstract consideration of their views, the theories of art/beauty. In these theories, express the West conceptions on these issues as their hearts conceive art and beauty. Everyone has the right to reflect or work on anything to express this wonderful gift of the beauty of Yahweh to every race under heaven. In chapter two, we have the language of Aesthetics. Every field of studies there is a special language which expresses the peculiar ideas of the field; aesthetics has its own language as a right. As a result, its area of activity is so wide, especially with African Aesthetics. The African is freer when he is expressing the self in any work of art. It is clear by the treatment in chapter four indicates that African Aesthetics deals with link that the former has with other fields.
