Transformative Property Law honours Professor AJ Van der Walt
(1956-2016) - scholar, mentor, and teacher. As the first incumbent
of the DST/NRF South African Research Chair in Property Law his
primary research goal was to develop the theoretical foundations
for the transformation of property law in post-apartheid South
Africa. Covering topics that are at the forefront of global
thinking on property law, Transformative Property Law consists of
20 essays by a combination of senior and young scholars from South
Africa, the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Ireland,
the Netherlands, Belgium, and Zimbabwe. The essays focus on the
themes that Professor Van der Walt developed during the first 10
years of the research chair, namely: (a) the single system of law
and subsidiarity principles; (b) the marginality principle; (c) the
development of the common law of property; (d) constitutional
property law; and (e) property theory. This volume also includes a
list of all Professor Van der Walt's research outputs and a list of
all the Masters and Doctoral students that he supervised during his
career.
Klinefelter's syndrome occurs relatively frequently, being
diagnosed for one in 600 male infants, yet it is probably very rare
that it is recognized early enough to make effective treatment
possible. Often the person afflicted does not go to a doctor until
physical and emotional disturbances have developed on the ba sis of
the syndrome. The appropriate therapy at the correct time can
prevent many of these disturbances. In our andrology outpatient
clinic we encountered Klinefelter's syndrome almost three decades
ago in patients suffering from impotentia generandi. It was not
until later that we dealt with it in our capacities as
dematologists. It was observed at a rate too high to be
coincidental among younger men suffer ing from ulcera crurum. On
the other hand, we failed to see the condition during our work as
con sultants in other specialities, especially internal medicine,
although we re peatedly attempted to identify it. We should have
encountered it at least occa sionally in our 10 years working in
the Munich hospitals with their more than 4000 beds. It was this
imbalance between the allegedly relative frequency of this
condition and its rare detection which led us to plan a Klinefelter
sympo sium. We soon determined, during a first search of the
literature, that there was information in many more subject areas
that we had expected or even guessed."
Out-of-print for years, this highly sought-after volume, remains
the most popular reference on inertial navigation systems analysis.
Finally, this classic book is back in print and readily available
only from Artech House. Authored by a pioneer in the field, this
authoritative resource focuses on terrestrial navigation, but is
also useful for air and sea applications. Packed with valuable,
time-saving equations and models, the book helps engineers design
optimal navigation systems by comparing the performance of the
various types of system mechanizations. Although applications and
technology have changed over the years, this book remains the best
source for fundamental inertial navigation system knowledge, from
notational conventions, reference frames, and geometry of the
earth, to unified error analysis, self-alignment techniques, and
the development of a system error model. This well-illustrated,
timeless reference belongs on the shelf of every practicing
engineer working in this area. It is suitable for electrical
engineers working in the area of GPS and other navigation systems,
as well as for graduate engineering students in related courses.
