Interpreting Medical Findings - In Sexual Contact And Abuse (Paperback): Steve R. Naidoo, Sagie Naidoo, Shikaar R. Bugwandeen,... Interpreting Medical Findings - In Sexual Contact And Abuse (Paperback)
Steve R. Naidoo, Sagie Naidoo, Shikaar R. Bugwandeen, Neil H. McKerrow
R337 Discovery Miles 3 370 Ships in 4 - 8 working days

This book examines sexual contact and abuse from a purely scientific and medical perspective.

The book covers:

  • the recently updated and relevant legislation
  • the sexual biology (anatomy and physiology) of the body, especially related to understanding medical aspects of injury and sexual contact, how and when injuries are caused, and how these relate to findings and their consequences
  • the critical aspects of medical forensic examinations including incident history, clinical examination technique, medical findings, evidence collection, special laboratory investigations and medical reports for court

The cadre of forensic nursing as a professional scope of nursing has recently been accepted by the Nursing Council and is now beginning to emerge, and legally in this country such nurses are now allowed to examine sexual abuse cases, issue reports and give testimony provided they undergo an accredited training programme in sexual abuse medicine. In addition, medical and legal professionals need to understand, interpret, and present sexual medical evidence appropriately in sexual offences cases.

This book will serve as a ready reference for the understanding and interpretation of the sexual biology and medicine, both in the medical practitioner’s consulting room and the courtroom.

Introduction To The Law Of Property (Paperback, 8th Edition): J.G. Horn, I.M. Knobel, M. Wiese Introduction To The Law Of Property (Paperback, 8th Edition)
J.G. Horn, I.M. Knobel, M. Wiese
R804 R724 Discovery Miles 7 240 Save R80 (10%) Ships in 4 - 8 working days

The purpose of this book is to provide a first introduction for an undergraduate student in property law. As with earlier editions this eighth edition of the Introduction to the Law of Property was written specifically for students in an undergraduate module on the law of property. Therefore, the contents are restricted to what the authors regard as essential for these students. Footnotes have not been used for the same reason; in an introductory module the emphasis should arguably fall on understanding basic concepts and principles, rather than on additional reading material. However, extensive use is made of examples from case law.

Under the new authorship the Introduction still emphasises the influence of the constitutional framework on the development of this aspect of private law. This eighth edition of the Introduction is published as part of the series of Juta’s Property Law Library. The aim of this series is to illustrate the interplay between the common law, the constitution and legal reform in a constitutional system. As an introduction, the book is different from the other volumes in the series in that it is specifically aimed at students.

In updating the Introduction cognisance was also taken of the Qualification standards for the Bachelor of Laws published by the HEQC in May 2015, and the attributes of a graduate that was included in the report. Therefore, the 2021 edition contains electronic resources that will assist students to be better prepared for the legal profession with an appreciation of the constitutional values and principles underpinning the law, and an understanding that the law is a dynamic and developing discipline.

Administrative Law In South Africa (Paperback, 3rd Edition): Cora Hoexter, Glenn Penfold Administrative Law In South Africa (Paperback, 3rd Edition)
Cora Hoexter, Glenn Penfold
R1,786 R1,509 Discovery Miles 15 090 Save R277 (16%) Ships in 4 - 8 working days

This book offers a comprehensive account of South African administrative law with an emphasis on judicial review of administrative action. First published in 2007, Administrative Law in South Africa was soon established as a leading scholarly work in its field. The first and second editions by Cora Hoexter both attracted a remarkable number of judicial citations with approval.

The updated third edition by Cora Hoexter and Glenn Penfold takes account of almost a decade of case law and commentary since the second edition appeared in April 2012. Although considerably expanded in length, the third edition retains the clarity and accessibility that characterised the first two editions.

The work is intended primarily for the subject specialist but will be appreciated by all who work with this branch of public law, including judges, practitioners, academics, students and administrators.

R1,176 R1,021 Discovery Miles 10 210 Save R155 (13%) Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Private Law in a Changing World honours the work of Professor Danie Visser and celebrates his return to research after almost a decade as Deputy Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Town. It considers the ways in which the law of obligations has evolved in response to external forces in both the recent and remote past – or, to switch perspectives, the high degree of internal coherence and continuity which it has maintained over time despite the operation of such forces.

Leading scholars of legal history and private law from six jurisdictions consider topics drawn from across the law of contract, delict/tort and unjust/unjustified enrichment.

Their insights shed light on contemporary debates around the world regarding the value of doctrinal scholarship, and on the debates regarding the decolonisation of private law currently unfolding in South Africa.

Denis Cowen (1917-2007) is renowned for his work on negotiable instruments. Selected Essays presents readers with other facets of his life's work. His seminal essays and articles helped define areas of law such as constitutional law, environmental law, law of property and statutory interpretation. As a public intellectual in the liberal tradition, he spoke with great timeliness, insight and insistence, during apartheid, about the need for a court-enforceable bill of rights, academic freedom and pre-publication censorship.

Cowen on Law: Selected Essays spans more than 50 years of his lively, contentious and beautifully constructed texts. Leading legal thinkers introduce newly-accessible texts and provide us with a contemporary, evaluative lens. The book reveals to readers a fascinating mind. It also serves as an engrossing reflection on South Africa's legal past as well as the intersection of law and society.

Violence Against Women - Law, Policy And Practice (Paperback): Violence Against Women - Law, Policy And Practice (Paperback)
R823 R739 Discovery Miles 7 390 Save R84 (10%) Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Women’s security in political, economic and social terms is directly linked to the pervasive problem of violence against women. Violence Against Women: Law, Policy and Practice seeks to understand this particular form of human rights violation, by situating violence against women in its historical, political, socio-economic and legal context in South Africa.

Whether in the private or public spheres, violence against women prevents women from realising a broad range of human rights that are central to full, inclusive and participatory citizenship. The authors of this volume reflect on the many forms of violence against women, the applicable laws and policies, and the challenges to effectively responding to this widespread violation of human rights.

Their contributions consider the role of law, policy and practice in relation to a broad range of themes including sexual violence, violence against women at the margins of systems and societies, and the impact on those who are working to defeat violence against women, whether as activists, practitioners or scholars.

The motivation for this particular law of obligations is the notion that the core assumptions of the dogmatic structure of each field, and of the law of obligations as a whole, can be expected to begin to show their imperfections more clearly the further one moves from the centre, and that this kind of examination affords an opportunity to reassess both the current premises in each field as well as the overall structure of obligations.

R776 R701 Discovery Miles 7 010 Save R75 (10%) Ships in 4 - 8 working days

The issue of pre-trial release or bail remains an important topic in the criminal justice process. This is mainly because bail is concerned with one of the most important principles of justice, namely, individual freedom. The denial of release after arrest constitutes, without doubt, serious infraction to personal freedom. Thus, knowledge of the processes related to pre-trial release is important, not only to lawyers, but also to all who are interested in the right to freedom.

A Guide to Bail Applications second edition expands on some of the most important issues, case discussions and case excerpts related to bail applications. New information is also included which offers somewhat fresher perspectives to the material, without necessarily detracting from the general style, poise and content of the previous edition.

Health Research Ethics - Safeguarding The Interests Of Research Participants (Paperback): Ames Dhai Health Research Ethics - Safeguarding The Interests Of Research Participants (Paperback)
Ames Dhai
R479 Discovery Miles 4 790 Ships in 4 - 8 working days

Health research has made spectacular strides over the past few decades. The value of health research is obvious and irrefutable. What is not so apparent is that people who participate in research may be harmed during the process. Africa prides itself in having some of the most respected universities globally. It is a continent of immense research potential. At the same time, Africa suffers from many of the health burdens of low-income regions. While it affords many research opportunities, this creates the potential for the misuse of power on vulnerable individuals and populations.

This book explores why participants in health research require protection. It also explains how ethical principles and the law can assist inter alia research ethics committees, researchers, funders and institutions at which research is conducted, to safeguard the rights and dignity of individuals contributing to the research enterprise. It engages with this imbalance and examines how well-intentioned aims of ethical health research can be achieved while simultaneously maximising the protection of research participants. It draws on local and international documents and expertise to inform the resolution of many ethical dilemmas and complexities that inevitably arise in health research.

Health Research Ethics: Safeguarding the Interests of Research Participants provides a solid understanding of the normative values for protecting research participants against exploitation, harm and wrong. Since research ethics is multidisciplinary, this book will be of value to a range of professionals and academics inter alia those from the health sciences, social sciences, and legal disciplines.
