Francois van Coke span met die skryf van hierdie biografie saam met Annie Klopper om in sy eie stem die gebeure te vertel wat hom as mens en musikant gevorm het. Sy perspektief word gebied op als van Fokofpolisiekar tot Van Coke Kartel, die sukses van “Toe vind ek jou” en sy rol as afrigter op The Voice. Minder bekende en onbekende verhale word ook vertel oor wilde partytjies, vuisgevegte, dwelms, nagte in tronkselle, liefde, soberheid en pa-wees. Dít is sy stories, hoe hý dit onthou.

The aim of this work remains to set out the basic principles of South African private law systematically, in clear unmistakable language, and as comprehensively as is possible in a single volume. Over the years, Wille's principles has appealed to judges, practitioners and students alike, and this edition is also written with the needs of these groups in mind. This edition, of which Dale Hutchison was general editor, was a notable success in this regard, and we have sought to follow its example of balancing the retention of the basic structure of the work with innovation in the treatment of its subject matter and the dissemination of original research. We have nevertheless as far as possible maintained the very useful practice in previous editions of citing the older, original authority for a proposition alongside contemporary sources. Many of the changes were necessitated or inspired by the Constitution, which has radically altered the foundations of our legal system. The impact of the Bill of Rights on private law has been significant and is growing, via both the horizontal application of fundamental rights and their legislative implementation and elaboration. This is reflected in the structure and content of the new introductory general part as well as in the text of virtually every chapter. Importantly, the constitution has given new prominence to indigenous customary law, and in this edition we have sought, where possible in and relevant for a work of this nature, to reflect its status as equal partner of the common law. This has led to major changes in almost all of the chapters on Persons and the Family. The frequency of far-reaching judicial changes to the law combined with the uncertainties of legislative timetables to necessitate several significant revisions during the final stages of preparation for publication.

Introduction to Psychological Assessment in the South African Context is an introductory text on measuring andassessing human behaviour within a complex multicultural environment. It offers a practical guide to the development of culturally appropriate measures and the application of assessment measures, as well as the interpretation and reporting of results.

The book provides advice with regard to assessing young children and individuals with disabilities, and also discusses the various contexts in which psychological measures are used, including education, counselling, the psycholegal domain, and research. Critical thinking exercises related to typical assessment scenarios develop students’ reasoning skills.

Real-life South African examples and case studies illustrate the theory and allow students to apply psychological assessment principles in practice.

Maart 1981. Ludo Labuschagne gaan saam met sy ma, haar vriend, oom Dippie, en ’n paar ander na ’n private eilandjie tussen Durban en Madagaskar. Die wegbreek word geborg deur Una Steenkamp, ’n ryk weduwee. Nog voor hulle op die eiland kom, word haar seun Ederik oënskynlik in Durban vermoor. Almal wat hom ken, glo egter Ederik is bloot nog kwaad oor ’n onlangse stryery en dat hy wel daar aangesit sal kom.

Intussen sit Ludo vas op die eiland saam met:
Attie Steenkamp, ’n predikant en Una se swaer
Christoline, die predikant se swaarmoedige vrou
Janneman, hulle seun wat sy been op die grens verloor het
Annetjie, hulle polities bewuste dogter
Toon van der Lugt, ’n selfingenome akteur
Suné Louw, ’n jong meisie wat deur Toon onderhou word
Cor Mocke, ’n ruwe weermagvriend van Ederik
Miguel Pedrito, Una se handyman
Inez, sy vrou en die kok-huishoudster

Dié spul, dertien in totaal, is nie lank op die eiland nie voor iemand sterf. Almal glo egter dit was selfdood – behalwe Ludo. Twee sulke vreemde gebeure kan nie toeval wees nie. Wanneer daar skielik nie meer petrol vir die motorboot is nie én die man wat elke dag van die vasteland af moet kom nie opdaag nie, is dinge vir Ludo duidelik: Hulle is saam met ’n moordenaar op die eiland vasgekeer en daar gaan binnekort nog koppe rol.

Hoe kleiner die plek, hoe groter sy geheime

Lekespeurder Ludo Labuschagne sit saam met ’n vriendin af na die Overberg. Kort voor lank verdwyn mense daar tussen neus en ore. Net om weer hul opwagting te maak. As lyke …

Die spanning kring uit. Aanvalle. Afpersing. ’n Berekende blik agter ’n gemoedelike plattelandse glimlag.

Kan die bose vastrapplek in so ’n idilliese landskap kry? En sal Ludo oorleef om die waarheid oop te krap?

Lawyers must be able to do research and should be able to do it well in order to honour their obligations, be those obligations commercial, in the field of criminal justice, constitutional, judicial or academic. Yet much confusion surrounds the nature of research, the need for lawyers and law students to undertake research projects, the requirements for the dissemination of the results, and their impact on policy and practice. Why is legal research needed? What does it entail? Where should one begin? What methods are used for legal research? What are the ethical issues involved? How does one go about publishing the results of one’s research in law, and which are the appropriate publication platforms? How should the quality of legal research be judged?

Legal Research: Purpose, Planning and Publication seeks to begin answering these questions, to introduce law students to legal research, and perhaps even to open up some new perspectives for those in the legal community who wish to sharpen their research skills.

The guidelines and views in Legal Research are not offered as hard doctrine, but rather as a route map for a journey of discovery, in the course of which readers may develop their own approach to the production of valuable legal research results.

Legal Research provides an introduction to ease the way of legal researchers, especially those with little expertise and experience, and perhaps to open a debate among the more experienced lawyers, who have not yet given much thought to the matter, about developing and improving our understanding of legal research in South Africa.

DIE AARDE HOU AAN MET DRAAI

As jy iemand verloor, gaan die lewe voort. Jý moet ook. Dit is wat die Van Wyk-gesin leer met een van hulle se dood.

Op ’n manier moet hulle sin maak uit wat gebeur het – en uit wat volg.

Daar is Ruan, die chirurg-pa wie se werk altyd eerste gekom het.

Markus, die matriekseun van wie almal groot verwagtinge het, wat bots met sy eie. Die drie jaar jonger Leandri wat besef sy het nooit haar ma geken nie. En Sophia wat met haar eerste skooljaar begin.

Veelbekroonde skrywer François Bloemhof het hierdie TV-reeks, wat só die land se verbeelding aangegryp het, verwerk tot ’n aangrypende roman wat wyd byval sal vind.

Van ’n teddiebeer wat lewend word, tot ’n snotmonster wat ’n koshuis terroriseer en ’n spookmeisie wat in die middel van die nag in jou oor fluister. Hierdie bundel bevat 11 naelkou-lekker kortverhale deur twee skrywers wat presiés weet hoe om al die hare op jou kop regop te laat staan.

Die laaste storie is boonop ekstra spannend en onvoorspelbaar, aangesien dit as ’n aflosverhaal geskryf is – een hoofstuk elk, afwisselend deur hierdie twee grilverhaal-meesters.

Working with Dynamic Crop Models: Methods, Tools and Examples for Agriculture and Environment, 3e, is a complete guide to working with dynamic system models, with emphasis on models in agronomy and environmental science. The introductory section presents the foundational information for the book including the basics of system models, simulation, the R programming language, and the statistical notions necessary for working with system models. The most important methods of working with dynamic system models, namely uncertainty and sensitivity analysis, model calibration (frequentist and Bayesian), model evaluation, and data assimilation are all treated in detail, in individual chapters. New chapters cover the use of multi-model ensembles, the creation of metamodels that emulate the more complex dynamic system models, the combination of genetic and environmental information in gene-based crop models, and the use of dynamic system models to aid in sampling. The book emphasizes both understanding and practical implementation of the methods that are covered. Each chapter simply and clearly explains the underlying principles and assumptions of each method that is presented, with numerous examples and illustrations. R code for applying the methods is given throughout. This code is designed so that it can be adapted relatively easily to new problems.

Amplifiers and Oscillators Optimization by Simulation provides a comprehensive resource on the topic, including theory and simulation. The book presents a panorama of electronic patterns, from the simple, to the more complicated. Comparisons of different structures and their advantages and disadvantages are included, making this the go-to book for engineers who need to quickly find the characteristics of a circuit and the method of calculation and dimensioning of components that fit a particular design.

Multiscale Biomechanics provides new insights on multiscale static and dynamic behavior of both soft and hard biological tissues, including bone, the intervertebral disk, biological membranes and tendons. The physiological aspects of bones and biological membranes are introduced, along with micromechanical models used to compute mechanical response. A modern account of continuum mechanics of growth and remodeling, generalized continuum models to capture internal lengths scales, and dedicated homogenization methods are provided to help the reader with the necessary theoretical foundations. Topics discussed include multiscale methods for fibrous media based on discrete homogenization, generalized continua constitutive models for bone, and a presentation of recent theoretical and numerical advances. In addition, a refresher on continuum mechanics and more advanced background related to differential geometry, configurational mechanics, mechanics of growth, thermodynamics of open systems and homogenization methods is given in separate chapters. Numerical aspects are treated in detail, and simulations are presented to illustrate models. This book is intended for graduate students and researchers in biomechanics interested in the latest research developments, as well as those who wish to gain insight into the field of biomechanics.

Networks of Invasion: Networks of Invasion: Empirical Evidence and Case Studies, Volume 57 bridges a conceptual gap between ecological network studies and invasion biology studies. This book contains chapters detailing pressing concerns regarding invasive species in food webs, but also extends the idea of networks of invasion to other systems, such as mutualistic networks or even the human microbiome. Chapters describe the tools, models and empirical methods adapted for tackling invasions in ecological networks, including sections on parasites and biological invasions, invasions in freshwater systems, and those in host-associated microbiome networks. In addition, the book provides interesting discussions on the importance of microorganisms and their relationship to macroorganisms.

Foams are ubiquitous in our daily lives. Their presence is highly desirable in certain foods, drinks and cosmetics, and they are essential in oil recovery and mineral extraction. In some industrial processes (such as the manufacture of glass, paper and wine) foams are an unwelcome by-product. Why do they appear? What controls the rate at which they disappear? Do they flow in the same way as ordinary liquids? All of these questions and more are addressed here, incorporating significant recent contributions to the field of foams. This book is the first to provide a thorough description of all aspects of the physico-chemical properties of foams. It sets out what is known about their structure, their stability, and their rheology. Engineers, researchers and students will find descriptions of all the key concepts, illustrated by numerous applications, as well as experiments and exercises for the reader. A solutions manual for lecturers is available via the publisher's web site.

The world of media production is in a state of rapid transformation. In this age of the Internet, interactivity and digital broadcasting, do traditional standards of quality apply or must we identify and implement new criteria?
This profile of the work of the Cambridge University Moving Image Studio (CUMIS), presents a strong argument that new developments in digital media are absolutely dependent on an understanding of traditional excellence. The book stands alone in placing equal emphasis on theoretical and practical aspects of its subject matter and avoids jargon so as to be easily understood by the general reader as well as the specialist.
Chapters discuss:
- animation - navigable architectural environments - moving image narrativity
- questions of truth and representation - virtuality/reality - synthetic imaging
- interactivity
This broad analysis of current research, teaching and media production contains essential information for all those working or studying in the areas of multimedia, architecture, film and television.
The book is designed as a core text for the Cambridge University 1 year MPhil Degree in Architecture and the Moving Image.
