African Customary Law in South Africa: Post-Apartheid and Living
Law Perspectives provides a clear introduction to indigenous law in
South Africa. The text provides a structure for understanding the
nature and overarching system of customary law, illustrating its
distinctness in relation to other areas of law, and exploring the
dynamic precepts and values of living customary law. The text
suggests an approach which supports harmonisation of customary law
precepts and values with the common law and Western constitutional
jurisprudence, and offers an authentic, culturally sensitive
framework within which contentious issues might be resolved. The
text is pedagogically designed to assist learning and the
development of academic skills, encouraging readers to develop an
approach of independent enquiry and analysis. This text is suited
as core course material for students who are studying African
Customary Law, Indigenous Law, or Legal Diversity as a module of
the LLB degree. It also serves as a useful first reference for
scholars who are interested in this field of law, legal
practitioners, magistrates and judges. The following teaching
resources complement the text, and are available to lecturers, to
support teaching and learning: PowerPoint slide presentation

dynamics of a developing country.
Bestselling author Sean Covey has made it his mission to understand trust in organizations. In his new breakthrough leadership book Trust and Inspire, Covey shows that though our world has evolved, our style of leadership still has not—but it’s time to change that.
Traditionally, businesses have relied on a “command and control” management
style, focusing on rigid hierarchies and compliance from employees. Covey argues
we must shift from a “command and control” to a “trust and inspire” leadership
model. Trusting and inspiring your team is defined by commitment from both sides,
with a focus on effectiveness and fostering a growth mindset. It is based on the
belief that employees are creative, collaborative, and full of potential; through trust,
you can inspire them to do their best work.
Trust and Inspire is a simple yet radical shift in how business must be done in the
21st century and an expansive, visionary, and inviting guide to the future of
leadership.
Renowned for its comprehensive coverage and engaging, storytelling
approach, the bestselling Moore's Clinically Oriented Anatomy, 9th
Edition, guides students from initial anatomy and foundational
science courses through clinical training and practice. A popular
resource for a variety of programs, this proven text serves as a
complete reference, emphasizing anatomy that is important in
physical diagnosis for primary care, interpretation of diagnostic
imaging, and understanding the anatomical basis of emergency
medicine and general surgery. The 9th Edition reflects the latest
changes in the clinical application of anatomy as well as
preparation for the USMLE while maintaining the highest standards
for scientific and clinical accuracy. NEW! Sex and gender content
clarifies important gender considerations and reflects an equitable
focus on female as well as male anatomy. Updated medical imaging
and integrated surface anatomy within each chapter clearly
demonstrates the relationship between anatomy, physical
examination, and diagnosis. Extensively revised Clinical Blue Boxes
highlight the practical applications of anatomy, accompanied by
helpful icons, illustrations, and images that distinguish the type
of clinical information covered. Updated introduction establishes
the foundational understanding of systemic information and basic
concepts essential to success from the classroom to the dissection
lab. Revised comprehensive surface anatomy photographs ensure
accurate, effective physical examination diagnoses with integrated
natural views of unobstructed surface anatomy and illustrations
superimposing anatomical structures with landmarks for more
accurate physical examination. Insightfully rendered, anatomically
accurate illustrations, combined with many photographs and medical
images, strengthen comprehension of anatomical concepts and
retention of "mental images" of anatomical structures. Bottom Line
boxes provide detailed summaries at a glance and underscore the
"big-picture" perspective. Illustrated tables clarify complex
information about muscles, veins, arteries, nerves, and other
structures for easy study and review. Chapter outlines help
students find key information quickly and efficiently.

you to forego the time-killing and energy-draining check and
balance bureaucracies that are so often relied upon in lieu of
actual trust.

The fastest growing realization everywhere is that humanity can't
go on the way it is going. Indeed, the great fear is we're entering
endgame where we appear to have lost the race between

in his Introduction, "The book that saves the world!". Griffith has
been able to venture right to the bottom of the dark depths of what
it is to be human and return with the fully accountable, true
explanation of our seemingly imperfect lives. At long last we have
the redeeming and thus transforming understanding of human
behaviour! And with that explanation found all the other great
outstanding scientific mysteries about our existence are now also
able to be truthfully explained-of the meaning of our existence, of
the origin of our unconditionally selfless moral instincts, and of
why we humans became conscious when other animals haven't. Yes, the
full story of life on Earth can finally be told-and all of these
incredible breakthroughs and insights are presented here in this
`greatest of all books'.

In the growth of societies, entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial
education are regarded as two significant and determinative
concerns. Both notions, in reality, must be intertwined since they
are the instruments for strengthening the stake on innovation,
creativity, employment, and economic growth. As a result,
entrepreneurship education must be promoted, and real-life
entrepreneurial stories can serve as role models for young people.
The case studies in this book are intended to be innovative and
practice-based teaching material on entrepreneurship for higher
education, with a focus on real-life contexts and practical
learning. Cases relate to current businesses, particularly local
businesses, in order to present learners with local role models
with whom they may easily identify. The case studies include a
variety of business industries and cover various entrepreneurial
stages such as firm start-up, growth, and management. In this
regard, case studies are chosen to address real-world issues that
would-be or young entrepreneurs would face, such as a lack of
financing, market access, opportunity recognition, and so on.
