This book is a useful resource for students and teachers of discourse analysis. It extends to other disciplines, where academia is in search of a fluid theory and method that accommodates analysis of written texts and spoken conversations.This volume provides a diverse, yet interwoven approach to its discourse on COVID-19 in African contexts. From educational discourse to multimodal digital public health discourse, environmental discourse, ambivalent discourse, political discourse, socio-psychological discourse, socioeconomic discourse, and remedial food discourse, the perspectives resonate one message; COVID-19 pandemic challenges that generate sustainable possibilities for its restraint across space and time.A synergy of discourses on COVID-19 in African contexts, with perspectives, challenges and possibilities for health experts, communication professionals, educational institutions, civil society, environmentalists, development stakeholders, researchers, policy-makers, and janitors of representative and inclusive decision-making to explore.
