Muslims and New Media in West Africa Pathways to God

Schulz's book is a solid ethnographic work that makes a significant contribution to the literature on Islam in Africa, and on the effects of media technologies on local peoples' lives both on and beyond the continent.

Muslims and New Media in West Africa makes a major contribution to the anthropological study of Islam as well as the study of Islam in West Africa. It adds to our knowledge of everyday practices of Islam as well as how these ordinary practices play into the creation of religious authorities.
