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

Brent Weeks returns to the New York Times bestselling world of the
Night Angel in Night Angel Nemesis, following master assassin Kylar
on a new adventure as the High King Logan Gyre calls on him to save
his kingdom and the hope of peace. After the war that cost him so
much, Kylar Stern is broken and alone. He's determined not to kill
again, but an impending amnesty will pardon the one murderer he
can't let walk free. He promises himself this is the last time. One
last hit to tie up the loose ends of his old, lost life. But
Kylar's best - and maybe only - friend, the High King Logan Gyre,
needs him. To protect a fragile peace, Logan's new kingdom, and the
king's twin sons, he needs Kylar to secure a powerful magical
artifact that was unearthed during the war. With rumors that a
ka'kari may be found, adversaries both old and new are on the hunt.
And if Kylar has learned anything, it's that ancient magics are
better left in the hands of those he can trust. If he does the job
right, he won't need to kill at all. This isn't an assassination -
it's a heist. But some jobs are too hard for an easy conscience,
and some enemies are so powerful the only answer lies in the
shadows. Praise for Brent Weeks: 'Weeks has truly cemented his
place among the great epic fantasy writers of our time' British
Fantasy Society 'Brent Weeks has a style and immediacy of detail
that pulls the reader relentlessly into his story' Robin Hobb
'Brent Weeks is so good it's starting to tick me off' Peter V.

Triple bill of zombie films. 'Zombie Apocalypse' (2011) is a
made-for-TV horror starring Ving Rhames in which a group of human
survivors of a zombie outbreak set out to make it to an uninfected
island. Ramona (Taryn Manning), Billy (Eddie Steeples) and Kevin
(Gerald Webb) are almost killed when they head out to search for
food. Fortunately for them, they meet a tough group that includes
Henry (Rhames) and Cassie (Lesley-Ann Brandt), who take on the
zombies with weapons as diverse as a sledgehammer and a samurai
sword. 'Abraham Lincoln Vs Zombies' (2012) is a tongue-in-cheek
zombie horror in which Abraham Lincoln is distracted from his
composition of the Gettysburg Address by a more pressing concern -
an outbreak of the undead. Lincoln (Bill Oberst Jr.) leads a team
of Secret Service agents to the area to try and contain the
disaster. There is a suggestion that Lincoln may have some
experience of dealing with zombies from his past and he takes under
his wing a youngster by the name of Teddy Roosevelt (Canon
Kuipers), who may have a role of his own to play in the American
story. 'The Dead' (2010) is a zombie horror set in West Africa.
Robert Freeman stars as Lieutenant Brian Murphy, a military
engineer who finds himself stranded in the wilderness of Burkina
Faso after a zombie outbreak lays waste to civilisation. Eventually
he teams up with Sergeant Daniel Dembele (Prince David Oseia), a
local soldier who has gone AWOL from the army to search for his
missing son.

There has probably never been a professional baseball player more
of a puzzle than Joe DiMaggio. DiMaggio had a talent for keeping
his emotions suppressed and his innermost thoughts to himself. Few
could say that they really knew him. And even the ones who did
found him to be unpredictable. He was a walking contradiction. He
was quiet, but not necessarily shy. He could be both gracious and
abrupt, approachable or aloof depending on the situation. Although
he came across as humble, he had a tremendous sense of entitlement.
He was complex, secretive, inscrutable. There were many layers to
the man who came to be affectionately known as the “Yankee
Clipper.†DiMaggio always felt that his actions on the field
should do the talking for him. And for the most part, they did. To
many, DiMaggio personified elegance, style, and grace. An
impeccable dresser, he was married to two glamorous actresses. On
the field, he glided almost effortlessly, never having to dive for
a ball and rarely (if ever) making a mistake on the basepaths. He
became the living embodiment of the American dream and a symbol of
the country’s so-called “greatest generation.†But as time
marched on, DiMaggio grew increasingly distrustful of the people
around him. It was understandable—inevitable even. The third book
in Jonathan Week’s Yankees trilogy contains an abundance of
anecdotes, statistics, and other little known facts about the
Yankee Clipper.
Superman’s back on Earth—but there's no time to rest, as a
powered-up version of one of the Man of Steel's most iconic
villains strikes Metropolis, in this new reader-friendly epic!
After a harrowing journey to a war-fueled planet, things are going
pretty well for Superman: the upper limits of his supercharged
powers have yet to be reached, and the futuristic transformation of
Metropolis has begun. But Lex Luthor has found the perfect
instrument with which to undo everything Superman is working to
achieve: longtime foe Metallo, whose hatred of Superman is matched
only by his hatred for Luthor himself. Â As Metallo continues
to evolve, a new enemy rises: the nightmarish threat of the
Necrohive!  Part of DC’s new reader friendly
initiative Dawn of DC, this story invigorates the superhero that
started it all with an accessible new story starring a classic
villain, and Superman’s full cast of allies including Supergirl,
Steel, and the Super Son, Jonathan Kent! It’s all written by
Superman mainstay Phillip Kennedy Johnson, and illustrated by
superstar artist Rafa Sandoval. This volume collects Action Comics
#1051-1056.
After the war that cost him so much, Kylar Stern is broken and alone.
He's determined not to kill again, but an impending amnesty will pardon
the one murderer he can't let walk free. He promises himself this is
the last time. One last hit to tie up the loose ends of his old, lost
life.
But Kylar's best — and maybe only — friend, the High King Logan Gyre,

If he does the job right, he won’t need to kill at all. This isn’t an

But some jobs are too hard for an easy conscience, and some enemies are
so powerful the only answer lies in the shadows.

Sexuality is the fifth revised and updated edition of the classic
text for understanding human sexuality. This new edition brings the
arguments and evidence fully up to date and explores their
implication for many topical controversies, around LGBTQ+ rights,
the trans experience and gender fluidity, same-sex marriage, sexual
autonomy and consent, and the meanings of sexual choice. Since it
was first published in the 1980s, Sexuality has been at the cutting
edge of the study of the social and historical meanings of
sexuality. Blending deep empirical knowledge with theoretical
sophistication and an acute sensitivity to the politics of
sexuality, the book offers an informed framework for understanding
the complexities of sexual life. A key insight of the book is that
the ways we think and speak about sexuality make a major
contribution to the ways we live it. Sexuality may be rooted in
biological possibilities, but it is shaped and experienced through
languages and meanings which are inevitably historical and social
in nature. The book explores with clarity and precision the
invention and re-invention of sexual meanings, the question of what
constitutes a true sex and the biological and social roots of
sexual difference, the challenges of diversity, the re-making of
sexuality as a highly divisive political subject and the
implications of the transformation of intimate life in the past few
generations. These are seen in the context of profound changes that
are re-fashioning the world, especially globalisation, cyber-sex,
and the rise of new forms of agency, including among women and
LGBTQ+ people, which have fed into new claims for sexual human
rights. This new edition of Sexuality will be an indispensable
guide for students in the social sciences with an interest in the
ever-changing worlds of sexuality.
