A laugh-out-loud funny collection of insightful and razor-sharp
essays on motherhood in our post-apocalyptic world from comedian
Natasha Leggero. When Natasha Leggero got pregnant at forty-two
after embarking on the grueling IVF process, she was over the moon.
But once her feelings of bliss dissipated, she couldn't help but
shake the lingering question: Am I doing this right? And then,
Should I be doing this if the world is about to end? In The World
Deserves My Children, Natasha explores themes like "geriatric"
motherhood, parenting in an environmental panic, fear and love,
discipline (and conflicting schools of thought on how not to raise
a brat), and more. Ultimately, Natasha determines that motherhood
is worth it. After all, where do you think the next five
generations of humans will be if the only people who are having
kids don't believe in science? The world deserves my children.

KwaZulu-Natal is culturally rich, offering a wide range of writers
- writing mainly in English and Zulu - who are linked through their
lives and their writing to this province of South Africa. The
writers include, to name just a few, Alan Paton, Roy Campbell,
Lewis Nkosi, Ronnie Govender, Wilbur Smith, Daphne Rooke, Credo
Mutwa and Gcina Mhlophe. And how better to understand a writer than
to know about the places they are linked to? For example, who,
after reading the lyrical opening sentences of Paton's famous book
Cry, the Beloved Country (1948) has not wanted to see this scene in
reality? There is a lovely road that runs from Ixopo into the
hills. These hills are grass-covered and rolling, and they are
lovely beyond any singing of it. A Literary Guide to KwaZulu-Natal
introduces you to the regions and writers through word and image,
leading you imaginatively through this beautiful province. This
could include following the route a fictional character charts in a
novel, visiting particular settings from a story or tracking down
the places linked to a writer, whether a birthplace, home, burial
site or significant setting. Literary tourists are interested in
how places have influenced writing and at the same time how writing
has created place. This is also a way of reflecting upon and
understanding historic and contemporary identities in a changing
cultural and political South African landscape.
This important Research Handbook provides a holistic analysis of
the development of the European Union's migration and asylum
policies. It comprehensively examines facets of each policy,
including insights from cutting-edge research and an in-depth
analysis of their development, whilst also identifying future
policy orientation. Featuring contributions from key legal
specialists in EU migration and asylum law, chapters in this
Research Handbook consider a variety of issues including, but not
limited to, the role of the institutional framework, visas,
borders, family and labour migration, refugee protection, mobility,
solidarity, and externalisation. It also offers an examination of
the effect of the migration 'crisis' on EU asylum and migration law
and the potential legal changes this may cause, as well as a survey
of the developments of the New Pact on Migration and Asylum
presented by the European Commission in 2020. Topical and
comprehensive, the Research Handbook on EU Migration and Asylum Law
is a must read for students and academics interested in EU law,
human rights, migration, and refugee law and politics. Its insights
will also help to inform the work of practitioners and policy
makers, and other experts in the areas of migration, asylum, EU
law, and EU integration.

One of the greatest challenges that teachers face when starting out
in their careers is learning how to deal with unruly and badly
behaved learners so that the rest of the class can get on with the
lesson. Teachers often say that they are not paid to discipline
learners, they are paid to teach them. However, without discipline
there can be little learning.
