Die toneelstuk ontgin nie net Andre Huguenet se lewe as mens en akteur tot met sy tragiese einde nie maar ook die ironiese spel tussen toneel en werklikheid. Ondanks die hoe eise wat hierdie tweekuns aan ’n dramaturg stel, bevestig Fourie opnuut sy vermoe om boeiende, menslike toneel te skep wat toeganklik is vir die gespesialiseerde sowel as die minder ingewyde teaterganger.

Writing an essay is rather like building a house. First, you need to have a carefully thought-out plan and a clear idea of how to use all the different tools and building materials. Of course, you also need to know what the finished project should look like. What are the conventions that other building contractors use? What does the home-owner expect? Only once you fully understand the basic principles of building are you able to put together, brick by brick, the four walls, a floor, a roof and the finishing touches, such as windows and doors. Much the same is true of writing an essay. You need to know the building regulations. You need to know what you are expected to build. You need to know the secrets and tricks of the trade. You need to practise. In this handbook, students - those who are about to write their first essay and those who have written numerous essays but who know that they are capable of obtaining better results - are guided along the basic principles of planning and building an essay that is well structured, clear and concise, and meets the high international standards required by tertiary educational institutions.

'n Heruitgawe van die eerste digbundel uit die pen van Andre Letoit, vandag beter bekend as Koos Kombuis. "Ek sal nooit vergeet hoe opgewonde ek was toe ek die dag my eerste gepubliseerde boek … deur die pos ontvang het nie,” skryf Koos Kombuis oor Suburbia se eerste druk. 'n Jaar voor daardie heuglike dag is die voornemende digter egter deur 'n uitgewery aangeraai om “nooit weer publikasie [te] oorweeg nie” en net te “skryf vir ... terapie”. Maar sy verse sou “viriel regop staan soos mielies in die geel transvaal” en hierdie herdruk, 21 jaar later, is ’n viering daarvan.

A new collection of stories about real-life characters and events that have shaped our past and that have never been told before - stories of bravery and honour, greed and failure, hope and despair, but ultimately stories of people who went beyond the expected and of events that surpassed the ordinary.

This fully updated book offers a compact and accessible account of EU intellectual property (IP) law and policy. The digital age brings many opportunities, but also presents continuing challenges to IP law as the EU's programme of harmonisation unfolds. As well as addressing the main IP rights (copyright, patents, designs, trade marks and related rights), the book also considers IP's relationship with the EU's rules on free movement of goods and competition, as well as examining the enforcement of IP rights. Taking account of numerous changes, this timely second edition covers the substantive provisions and procedures which apply throughout the EU, making extensive reference to the case law. The author considers how the exploitation of IP is increasingly global; harmonisation, in contrast, is only partial, even at the EU level. In response, the book sets EU IP law in its wider international context. It also seeks to highlight policy issues and arguments of relevance to the EU, in its relations both within the Union and with the rest of the world. Designed as a compact and approachable account of these difficult and technical areas, and with advice on further reading and research, this unique book is useful both as a work of reference and for more general study. It is essential reading for postgraduate students, academic researchers and legal practitioners alike.

The Marriage and Matrimonial Property Law Amendment Act (3) of 1988, together with the Divorce Act (70) of 1979, has brought about fundamental changes to the South African law of marriage. Prior to its enactment, black persons had been almost entirely excluded from the operation of the Matrimonial Property Act (88) of 1984, and it was only in 1988 that the Amendment Act (3) extended the ameliorations of 1984 to their civil marriages. This book discusses the ramifactions of this in detail, as well as dealing with the implications of the South African constitution. It refers to comparative law and the literature that describes important and similar developments in other jurisdictions.

Die geel kafee het oorspronklik in die 1980's onder Koos Kombuis se skrywersnaam Andre Letoit verskyn. Met die publikasie van hierdie gedigte was die Nuwe Suid-Afrika nog net 'n pypdroom. Toe hy vir die eerste keer “weer hierdie ou poems... deurlees,” skryf Kombuis in sy voorwoord by die tweede druk, het twee dinge hom opgeval: hoe hy al hoe nader aan sy loopbaan as liriekskrywer beweeg het en hoe Eurosentries die digbundel was. “Maar," voeg hy by: “... dalk, wie weet, dien dit as inspirasie vir jong digters en skrywers vandag.”

Naelstring belig die problematiek van transformasie in ’n nuwe Suid-Afrika en die soms fanatieke eise van swart bemagtiging. Die drama sentreer rondom ’n moeder wat weier om haar pasgebore baba se naelstring te knip. Die baba is egter nie bereid om die absurde situasie gelate te aanvaar nie en neem sy gehoor op ’n reis van swart komedie en deernisvolle maar pynlike interaksie. Pieter Fourie, dramaturg en dramaveteraan, is waarskynlik die enigste Suid-Afrikaanse kunstenaar wat diep spore as toneelspeler, regisseur, artistieke direkteur en skrywer getrap het. Met Naelstring deurbreek die bekroonde dramaturg Pieter Fourie opnuut die grense van sy oeuvre.

Addressing the contentious debate surrounding the future of the European Atomic Energy Community Treaty (Euratom), Anna Soedersten offers one of the first examinations of Euratom from an institutional and structural perspective, and in doing so, investigates the legal implications of its continued separate existence. Using primary material as key sources for analysis, as well as examining all of the treaty's titles, this book explores the relationship between Euratom and two other core EU treaties, the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). In considering whether it is still relevant that one of the EU's founding treaties is the promotion of nuclear energy, Soedersten concludes that there is no need for the Euratom as a separate treaty. Euratom at the Crossroads will be essential reading for scholars in the fields of EU institutional law and EU energy law. EU officials and practitioners in the field of energy law, at national legislatures and regulator authorities, will find this indispensable reading.

Min verhale uit die Anglo-Boereoorlog het lesers só aangegryp as die avonture van die Boere-James Bond, kaptein Koos Naudé(1876-1956).

Onvergeetlik is avonture soos dié waarin hy 'n Engelse uniform vrylik in die besette Pretoria rondbeweeg, die Engelse offisiere se spogperde steel, tien keer gedurende die oorlog die stad in die geheim as spioen besoek en 'n groep vroue organiseer om die spioenasie van die ontbinde Geheime Diens voort te sit. Sy avonture, wat in 1904 vir die eerste keer onder die titel In doodsgevaar gepubliseer is, is in 1940 deur G.D. Scholtz verwerk en heritgegee.

Dié boek het intussen een van die klassieke verhale van die Anglo-Boereoorlog geword.

One of the most followed antitrust cases of recent times-United States v. Apple-reveals an often-missed truth: what Americans most fear is competition itself. In 2012 the Department of Justice accused Apple and five book publishers of conspiring to fix e-book prices. The evidence overwhelmingly showed an unadorned price-fixing conspiracy that cost consumers hundreds of millions of dollars. Yet before, during, and after the trial millions of Americans sided with the defendants. Pundits on the left and right condemned the government for its decision to sue, decrying Amazon's market share, railing against a new high-tech economy, and rallying to defend beloved authors and publishers. For many, Amazon was the one that should have been put on trial. But why? One fact went unrecognized and unreckoned with: in practice, Americans have long been ambivalent about competition. Chris Sagers, a renowned antitrust expert, meticulously pulls apart the misunderstandings and exaggerations that industries as diverse as mom-and-pop grocers and producers of cast-iron sewer pipes have cited to justify colluding to forestall competition. In each of these cases, antitrust law, a time-honored vehicle to promote competition, is put on the defensive. Herein lies the real insight of United States v. Apple. If we desire competition as a policy, we must make peace with its sometimes rough consequences. As bruising as markets in their ordinary operation often seem, letting market forces play out has almost always benefited the consumer. United States v. Apple shows why supporting cases that protect price competition, even when doing so hurts some of us, is crucial if antitrust law is to protect and maintain markets.
