Soos sy eerste bundel, Gebroke sinne, is JA! 'n kombinasie van Bos
se woorde (noem dit gedigte, mymerings of woordlandskappe) in
Nederlands en Afrikaans – hier in duet met beelde deur Eric de
Bruijn. Ja! is die tweede publikasie uit Stef Bos se pen en vertoon
heelwat ooreenkomste met sy eerste geskrewe projek, Gebroke sinne
(2004). Soos wat Gebroke sinne deur Marianna Booyens geillustreer
is, is die kunstenaar Eric de Bruijn by Ja! betrek. Die uitleg is
ook eenders aan die van Gebroke sinne. In teenstelling egter met
die vroeere publikasie wat volledig uit Nederlands in Afrikaans
vertaal is, is Ja! grotendeels in Nederlands geskryf met enkele
Afrikaanse tekste.
Yeongju did everything she was supposed to, go to university, marry a decent man, get a respectable job. Then it all fell apart. Burned out, Yeongju abandons her old life, quits her high-flying career, and follows her dream. She opens a bookshop.
In a quaint neighbourhood in Seoul, surrounded by books, Yeongju and her customers take refuge. From the lonely barista to the unhappily married coffee roaster, and the writer who sees something special in Yeongju - they all have disappointments in their past. The Hyunam-dong Bookshop becomes the place where they all learn how to truly live.
A heart-warming story about finding comfort and acceptance in your life – and the healing power of books.

technology via bioelectrolysis; organic synthesis on cathodes;
chemical products and nitrogen recovery; external electron transfer
and electrode material promotion; and the microbiology of
bioelectrosynthesis. Topics covered include: hydrogen production
from waste stream with microbial electrolysis cell; microbial
electrolysis cell; inorganic compound synthesis in
bioelectrochemical system; microbial growth, ecological, and
metabolic characteristics in bioelectrosynthesis systems; microbial
metabolism kinetics and interactions in bioelectrosynthesis system;
and more. * Comprehensively covers all of the key issues of
biolelectrosynthesis * Features contributions from top experts in
the field * Examines the conversion of organic wastes to methane

This exciting textbook introduces the basic tenets and
methodologies of empirical legal research. Explaining how to
initiate and conduct empirical research projects, how to evaluate
the methods used and how to analyze and engage with the results,
Kees van den Bos provides a vibrant and reliable primer for
students and practitioners looking to engage actively in legal
research. Key features include: A straightforward, non-technical
and accessible style to engage new researchers in empirical legal
research A step-by-step guide to empirical research, leading
students through establishing and building a research project, to
interpreting and reporting on empirical data An exploration of an
array of methodologies to gather empirical data, including
interviews, surveys and experiments, providing plenty of avenues
for research Exercises to allow students to put new skills into
practice and suggested further reading to deepen students'
understanding of new topics. Offering an enthusiastic introduction
to a valuable subject, this is crucial reading for advanced law
students hoping to pursue their own empirical legal research
projects. Its insights into cutting-edge research methodologies
will also be of benefit to students with a keen interest in the
sociology of law, as well as socio-legal studies more widely.
This timely Research Handbook brings together 24 chapters with a
wide range of different theoretical perspectives, empirical
research, and innovative thought provoking ideas relating to an
area of organisation and management that has been neglected for
many decades - line managers. With a resurgence of interest in the
topic in recent decades, this Research Handbook argues that line
managers are a critical element of both employee experiences and
organisational performance and worthy of close attention. Split
into three sections, chapters present various ways in which line
managers can implement HRM practices in the organisation,
considering the implementation of a variety of HRM policies and
practices (content), a variety of implementation processes
(process), and a variety of line management actors. It also
develops future directions for research on line managers, such as
the future of work, digitalisation, robotisation and AI and the gig
economy. Integrating theoretical and empirical research, the
Research Handbook on Line Managers will be a key resource for
scholars in the fields of business leadership, human resource
management and organisation studies. It also provides managerial
practices for organisations and line managers who are looking to
improve the effectiveness and the efficiency of their work.
The Manual highlights the human rights principles and criteria in
relation to drinking water and sanitation. It explains the
international legal obligations in terms of operational policies
and practice that will support the progressive realisation of
universal access. The Manual introduces a human rights perspective
that will add value to informed decision making in the daily
routine of operators, managers and regulators. It also encourages
its readership to engage actively in national dialogues where the
human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation are translated
into national and local policies, laws and regulations. Creating
such an enabling environment is, in fact, only the first step in
the process towards progressive realisation. Allocation of roles
and responsibilities is the next step, in an updated institutional
and operational set up that helps apply a human rights lens to the
process of reviewing and revising the essential functions of
operators, service providers and regulators.
The Fair Process Effect aims to shed light on why there are so many
instances of distrust, polarization, and conspiracy thinking in our
world and what we can do about this. The book focuses on the fair
process effect as a mechanism that may help to start overcoming
these important issues of societal discontent. This is a positive
effect that people exhibit when they have been treated in genuinely
fair and just ways by fellow human beings and societal authorities.
Current insights presented in the book aid the understanding of why
people may experience discontent, distrust, and disillusionment.
Furthermore, these insights can be used to start countering
exaggerated levels of distrust, heightened polarization, and
unfounded conspiracy thinking. To this end, Van den Bos develops a
coherent and modern account of the fair process effect, targeted at
understanding and managing these pertinent issues.

In these entertaining birding anecdotes from around the world, Bo
Beolens, alias the 'Fatbirder', traverses many of the planet's wild
places, along with his wife Maggie, looking at birds - some
familiar, others exotic, a few beyond a person's most extravagant
expectations. On the way, he meets up with a wide variety of human,
animal and bird characters and experiences a plenitude of amusing
and sometimes bizarre happenstances, all told with the author's
wellknown flair and panache. Certainly, his travels are a credit to
his courage and fortitude in coming to terms with wild birds of
different plume, hue and voice. The book, with a prelude by
celebrity naturalist and broadcaster Mike Dilger, comprises
twenty-six alphabetical 'chapters' - starting with A for Anhinga,
the Snake-bird, and ending with Z for Zebra Finch - each being
accompanied by a humorous drawing by cartoonist and illustrator Des
Campbell. A-Z of Birds will surely amuse and entertain all those
who have a passion for birds and wish to be inspired by one who
already has lots of first-hand experience of how to (usually) get
the most out of travelling to far-flung lands to see them.
