What does Corporate Governance mean in the post Steinhoff-collapse era in South Africa? It has become more important than ever, and this established work by top directors, accountants and lawyers is an essential handbook for all Company Directors, their advisers, and those who have aspirations to be business leaders.
Companies, whether public, private or state owned, their directors and officers, their shareholders and the public are all affected by new and sweeping changes to corporate governance codes, company legislation and regulations.
A new & significantly expanded edition of this leading reference on Corporate Governance in South Africa, this book incorporates a new and comprehensive Summary of the King IV code, as well updated examples and current thinking on an increasingly important sphere.
200 women from a variety of backgrounds are asked the same five questions. Their answers are inspiring human stories of success and courage, love and pain, redemption and generosity. From well-known activists, artists, and innovators to everyday women whose lives are no less exceptional for that, each woman shares her unique replies to questions like “What really matters to you?” and “What would you change in the world if you could?” Interviewees include US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, actor and human rights activist Alfre Woodard, and Nobel laureate Jodi Williams, along with those who are making a difference behind the scenes around the world, such as Marion Wright Edelman, head of the Children’s Defense Fund.
Each interview is accompanied by a photographic portrait, resulting in a volume that is compelling in word and image — and global in its scope and resonance. This landmark book is published to coincide with an immersive travelling exhibition and an interactive website, building on this remarkable, ever-evolving project. With responses ranging from uplifting to heartbreaking, these women offer gifts of empowerment and strength inviting us to bring positive change at a time when so many are fighting for basic freedom and equality.
Local interviewees include Graça Machel, Caster Semenya, Zelda la Grange, Mpho Tutu van Furth, Hlubi Mboya, Sahm Venter, Joanne Fedler, Ingrid le Roux, Gillian Slovo and Zoleka Mandela, among others.
A minimum of 10% of the project’s revenue will be distributed to organisations devoted to protecting and advancing the rights of women. Each interviewee can nominate an organisation (or themselves if they are in financial need) to receive their portion of the charitable pool or they can select the principal charitable partner, the Graça Machel Trust.

This CAPS study guide highlights how political and economic
forces have influenced the course of history. It uses the Cold
War and its aftermath as the thread that links up all six of the
matric topics. Nevertheless, it is careful to show a range of
perspectives, and to show how the same events can be seen through
different lenses. For each of the six topics, this study guide
offers: useful definitions, comprehensive notes with revealing
quotations, illustrations of people, places and events, diagrams,
tables and maps that make relationships and comparisons explicit,
visual summaries for the easy recall of key points, source-based
questions and answers, and essay questions, with notes on how to
respond, as well as example essays. The book also includes useful
exam guidance and a practice exam, with answers and example essays.
However, it is important to note that the essays in this book are
not ‘model essays’ to be learnt. They are included
to demystify what is required to achieve a high mark. We
hope that after reading them learners will understand the
requirements of the essay genre, and be better equipped to express
their own opinions within an essay format. All the pictures in the
book are available as part of our PowerPoint presentations,
which can be downloaded for free from our website
(www.theanswer.co.za). Teachers who order books for their class can
also request these PowerPoint presentations to be sent to them on a
CD. Note to IEB learners: While all the practice questions in
this book come from DBE (National) exams, the comprehensive notes
will still benefit learners who are preparing for the IEB exam.
This valuable study guide, based on the CAPS curriculum, covers 6
topics and, for each topic, includes: Comprehensive Notes, Key
Terms & Timelines, Questions & Essays and Answers to
questions and essays plus: Exam Papers & Memos. This book
is a well-substantiated portrayal of the periods and cultures
covered by the Grade 10 History curriculum. Many photographs and
excerpts are used to contextualise events and make the subject
accessible. The key terms and timelines provide easy referencing
for every topic. A wide variety of source-based and essay questions
are supplied and the detailed answers and model essays explicitly
illustrate the skills that learners are being expected to master.
This book is a valuable tool for establishing a sound understanding
of the History curriculum. Teachers can request a free image CD to
accompany the use of this book in the classroom. This CD also shows
learners how mind-maps can be used as a way of summarising key
content. The same material is also downloadable from our website.

Des Rubens was a well known and greatly admired Scottish climber.
He graduated from Edinburgh University in 1973 and was a teacher of
Outdoor Education in Craigroyston School Edinburgh from 1979 until
retirement in 2011. Des kept diaries of his walks and climbs all
over Scotland and wrote accounts of his climbs in the Himalaya, the
Caucasus and the United States. This collection of his writings and
those of his companions conveys, with a dry wit, his great
enthusiasm for the Scottish hills and for all aspects of
mountaineering in the greater ranges. Geoff Cohen, who has edited
the collection, was one of Des' closest climbing partners for over
40 years. Together they shared many of the adventures recounted
here, in Scotland and overseas.

Designed to meet the requirements for students at GCSE and A level,
this accessible educational edition offers the complete text of
Never Let Me Go with a comprehensive study guide. Intended for
individual study as well as class use, Geoff Barton's guide: -
clearly introduces the context of the novel and its author; -
examines in detail its themes, characters and structure; - looks at
the novel in the author's own words, and at different critical
receptions; - provides glossaries and test questions to prompt
deeper thinking. In one of the most memorable novels of recent
years, Kazuo Ishiguro imagines the lives of a group of students
growing up in a darkly skewed version of contemporary England.
Narrated by Kathy, now thirty-one, Never Let Me Go hauntingly
dramatises her attempts to come to terms with her childhood at a
seemingly idyllic school, Hailsham, and with the fate that has
always awaited her and her closest friends in the wider world. A
story of love, friendship and memory, Never Let Me Go is charged
throughout with a sense of the fragility of life.
