This book asks how governments in Africa can use evidence to improve their policies and programmes, and ultimately, to achieve positive change for their citizens.

Looking at different evidence sources across a range of contexts, the book brings policy makers and researchers together to uncover what does and doesn't work and why. Case studies are drawn from five countries and the ECOWAS (west African) region, and a range of sectors from education, wildlife, sanitation, through to government procurement processes. The book is supported by a range of policy briefs and videos intended to be both practical and critically rigorous. It uses evidence sources such as evaluations, research synthesis and citizen engagement to show how these cases succeeded in informing policy and practice.

The voices of policy makers are key to the book, ensuring that the examples deployed are useful to practitioners and researchers alike. This innovative book will be perfect for policy makers, practitioners in government and civil society, and researchers and academics with an interest in how evidence can be used to support policy making in Africa.

Pamela Anderson's blond bombshell image was ubiquitous in the 1990s. Discovered in the stands during a Canadian football game, she was quickly launched into superstardom, becoming Playboy's favourite cover girl and an emblem of Hollywood glamour and sex appeal. Yet the Pamela Anderson we think we know was created through happenstance rather than careful cultivation.

Love, Pamela brings forth her true story, that of a small town girl getting tangled up in her own dreams. Growing up on Vancouver Island, the daughter of young, wild, and unwittingly stylish parents, Pamela lived a hardscrabble childhood but developed a deep love for nature, populating her world with misfits, apparitional friends, and injured animals. Eventually overcoming her natural shyness, Pamela let her restless imagination propel her into a life few can dream of, in Hollywood and the Playboy Mansion. As her star rose, she found herself becoming a fixture of tabloid fodder, at the height of an era when paparazzi tactics were bent on destroying a person's image and self-esteem. Pamela forged ahead with grace, finding sanctuary in her love of art and literature, and emerged a devoted mother and activist.

Now, having returned to the island of her childhood, after a memorable run starring as Roxie in Chicago on Broadway, Pamela is telling her story, a story of an irrepressible free spirit coming home and discovering herself anew at every turn.

With vivid prose interspersed with bursts of original poetry, Love, Pamela is a pensive, layered, and unforgettable memoir.

Sy voel uiteindelik veilig...

Madie van Tonder was lief vir die charismatiese James van Vuuren en het vas geglo dat hy dieselfde voel. Ná die traumatiese afloop van hulle verhouding, besluit sy om in die vervolg haar hart toe te sluit, vrolik soos 'n vlinder rond te fladder en dieper verhoudings te vermy soos die pes.

Totdat sy die jong veearts, Lourens de Villiers, ontmoet. Sy helderbruin oë glimlag saam wanneer hy lag en hy laat haar veilig voel. Maar kan sy haar hart hierdie keer vertrou, of is Lourens ook besig om met haar te speel?

Die kwessie van seksuele teisering word aangespreek met baie deernis en sensitiwiteit in hierdie verhaal.

Het jy al ooit gevoel jy het al alles op aarde probeer om ’n probleem op te los, maar dat niks werk nie? Het jy al ooit gewonder waar die moeilikhede wat jou in die gesig staar, vandaan kom?

In Jou stryd behoort aan die Here verduidelik Joyce Meyer dat wanneer jy die duiwel – wat werklik is en aktief is in vandag se wêreld – as jou ware vyand en die bron van jou probleme raaksien, jy dit kan oorkom en ’n lewe van vrede, vryheid, geloof en oorwinning leef. Wanneer jy die lewe se aanslae in die gesig staar, is daar sekere dinge wat jy vir jouself moet doen, soos om ywerig God se Woord te bestudeer en toe te pas, Hom te vertrou, te bid, ander te help, en ’n gesindheid van vertroue en ’n dankbare hart te handhaaf. Maar daar is ander dinge wat net God kan doen. Wanneer jy jou deel doen, doen God sy deel – en Hy is altyd gereed en gretig om jou te verdedig en te help.

Joyce fokus nie net op die aard en strategieë van die vyand in hierdie vars benadering tot geestelike oorlogvoering nie, maar ook op die ware karakter en liefde van God, wat jou altyd na oorwinning sal lei. Ongeag hoe moeilik jou uitdagings ook al is, het jy alles wat jy nodig het om elke stryd te wen – want God is aan jou kant!

Winner, 2017 CantoMundo Poetry Prize. Paraiso, the first book in the new CantoMundo Poetry Series, which celebrates the work of Latino/a poets writing in English, is a pilgrimage against sorrow. Erupting from a mother's death, the poems follow the speaker as he tries to survive his grief. Catholicism, family, good rum . . . these help, but the real medicine happens when the speaker pushes into the cloud forest alone. In a Costa Rica far away from touristy beaches, we encounter bus trips over the cold mountains of the dead, drug dealers with beautiful dogs, and witches with cell phones. Science fuses with religion, witchcraft is joined with technology, and eventually grief transforms into belief. Throughout, Paraiso defies categorization, mixing its beautiful sonnets with playful games and magic cures for the reader. In the process, moments of pure life mingle with the aftermath of a death.

That they were unique or on the contrary produced in millions of copies, hundred objects presented within the framework of this work have this in common that they form the weft of one Major episode of the Second World War, the Battle of Normandy.

On a Bangalore night in April 2008, cricket and India changed forever. It was the first night of the Indian Premier League - cricket, but not as we knew it. It involved big money, glitz, prancing girls and Bollywood stars. It was not so much sport as tamasha: a great entertainment. The Great Tamasha examines how a game and a country, both regarded as synonymous with infinite patience, managed to produce such an event. James Astill explains how India's economic surge and cricketing obsession made it the dominant power in world cricket, off the field if rarely on it. He tells how cricket has become the central focus of the world's second-biggest nation: the place where power and money and celebrity and corruption all meet, to the rapt attention of a billion eyeballs. Astill crosses the subcontinent and, over endless cups of tea, meets the people who make up modern India - from faded princes to back-street bookmakers, slum kids to squillionaires - and sees how cricket shapes their lives and that of their country. Finally, in London he meets Indian cricket's fallen star, Lalit Modi, whose driving energy helped build this new form of cricket before he was dismissed in disgrace: a story that says much about modern India. The Great Tamasha is a fascinating examination of the most important development in cricket today. A brilliant evocation of an endlessly beguiling country, it is also essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the workings of modern India. Winner of the British Sports Book Awards Cricket Book of the Year 2014.

Extracto: Eskorbuto fue un grupo de musica punk originario de Santurce, Pais Vasco, Espana. Surgieron en los anos 1980 y han sido muy influyentes en el panorama punk y rock, siendo una banda nunca exenta de criticas, se han convertido en un mito dentro del punk practicamente en todo el mundo. El grupo se crea en 1980 influenciados por la repercusion del movimiento punk en 1977. Son descubiertos por Sardi, uno de los personajes de la movida madrilena, en 1982. En 1983 en un posterior viaje a Madrid para detallar con Sardi los pormenores del repertorio de lo que sera su primer disco, el clasico "Mucha policia, poca diversion," este les indica un camino a traves de un parque para llegar a casa de un amigo; al salir del parque pasan por delante de una comisaria. Alli mismo, dado su aspecto "sospechoso" son interrogados por la policia y detenidos por el contenido de las letras de la maqueta que portaban (con temas como -ETA-, -La calavera del Rey- o -Maldito Pais Espana-) y se les aplica la ley antiterrorista. Durante la encarcelacion Eskorbuto se sintieron abandonados por algunos sectores del Pais Vasco, sobre todo la denominada Izquierda Abertzale y lo plasmaron, en el disco Zona Especial Norte(1984), en el tema -A la mierda el Pais Vasco-. Esto, junto con no quererse alinear con el denominado Rock Radical Vasco, les trajo muchos problemas para tocar en el Pais Vasco. Se edita su primer disco con Spansuls en 1983, producido por Sardi. Y en 1984 "Zona Especial Norte," LP compartido con RIP, tambien en Spansuls. Su primer album completo llego en 1985, Eskizofrenia, para Tw...
