This publication addresses the legal aspects specifically relevant to police officials.

It states, interprets and applies the most general legal principles in the fields of criminal law and criminal procedure (mainly the pre-trial process), and some basic principles of the law of evidence. There is a constant emphasis on the influence of human rights on these fields of law, and especially on policing powers.

Academics, practitioners, justice and police officials collaborated in producing a book that is not only theoretically sound, but also of great practical value.

Commercial Law aims at dealing comprehensively with the most important principles of both the law of contract in general and of those nominate contracts most often encountered in the commercial sphere, such as credit agreements and contracts of sale, lease, carriage, suretyship, pledge, mortgage, employment, arbitration, letting and hiring of work , as well as insurance.

Since the publication of the fourth edition of Commercial Law in 2011, changes in several areas of the law have necessitated the publication of this fifth edition. New legislation and case law were updated as far as possible up to the end of August 2015.

Sedert die verskyning van die derde uitgawe van Kommersiele Reg in 2006 het omvattende veranderinge op sekere regsgebiede 'n vierde uitgawe genoodsaak. 'n Nuwe hoofstuk oor elektroniese betalingsmetodes is bygevoeg.

'n Nuwe deel word aan die Wet op Verbruikersbeskerming 68 van 2008 gewy, terwyl die invloed van die Wet ook in die afsonderlike hoofstukke oor byvoorbeeld die kontraktereg en besondere kontrakte soos die koopkontrak bygewerk is. Origens is nuwe wetgewing en regspraak waar moontlik bygewerk tot einde Augustus 2011.

Kommersiele Reg het ten doel om volledig te handel met die belangrikste beginsels van sowel die algemene kontraktereg as die benoemde kontrakte wat die meeste in die handelsverkeer aangetref word, soos kredietooreenkomste, koop-, huur-, borg-, pand-, verband-, diens-, arbitrasie-, werkaannemings- vervoer- en versekeringskontrakte.

Die werk word ingelei met 'n nuttige bespreking van die oorsprong, totstandkoming en sistematiek van die reg, gevolg deur 'n bespreking van die bronne van die regsverbintenis, soos die kontrak, delik en ongeregverdigde verryking, wat nodig is vir 'n beter begrip van die kontraktereg.

Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) in the workplace is not only a strategic priority in terms of moral or social responsibility, it is also an obligation regulated and governed by law. A well-designed manufacturing process (the operations system) must be both productive and safe, without potential physical, emotional and mental health risks. OSH management has become a very complex multi-functional science within operations management and total quality management (TQM). It focuses on a non-legalistic approach whereby the organisational culture fosters spontaneous OSH and a high quality of work life. This is done by using a TQM approach, based on a functional TQM model.
