This book is an all-encompassing guide to everything Jan Braai currently knows about braaing. It is a celebration of this wonderful South African tradition, in which 15–20 million South Africans participate each year on 24 September on National Braai Day. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of this cultural event, Jan Braai has put together more than 200 recipes that can be cooked over and enjoyed alongside a wood fire.

Divided into 20 chapters, the book includes recipes for traditional favourites such as classic potjies, steaks, burgers and ribs, to less conventional dishes prepared on the braai, including pasta, pizza, salads and desserts. Every dish is delectable and the accompanying photography will have your mouth watering, and your family and friends clamouring for a get-together around the braai fire while you put your braai skills to the test. Jan Braai’s clear instructions and no-nonsense attitude to the art of braai will ensure that even newbie braaiers will easily pull off these recipes.

Also available in Afrikaans, as 'Atmosvuur'.

Hierdie boek is ’n universele gids oor alles wat Jan Braai tans oor braai weet. Dit is ’n viering van hierdie wonderlike Suid-Afrikaanse tradisie waaraan 15–20 miljoen Suid-Afrikaners elke jaar op 24 September op Nasionale Braaidag deelneem. Om hierdie kulturele gebeurtenis se 20ste herdenking te vier het Jan Braai meer as 200 resepte bymekaargesit wat oor ’n houtvuur gaargemaak en daar langsaan geniet kan word.

Die boek is in 20 hoofstukke verdeel en sluit resepte in vir tradisionele gunstelinge soos klassieke potjies, steaks, burgers en ribbetjies, tot minder konvensionele geregte wat op die braai voorberei word, soos pasta, pizza, slaai en nagereg. Elke gereg is smaaklik en die meegaande fotografie sal jou mond laat water en jou familie en vriende geesdriftig op ’n samekoms langs die vuur laat aandring terwyl jy jou braaivaardighede ten toon stel. Jan Braai se duidelike instruksies en nugter houding teenoor die braaikuns sal verseker dat selfs groentjiebraaiers hierdie resepte maklik baasraak.

Daar is iets vir almal in hierdie boek, en die maklik verkrygbare bestanddele beteken dis verspot maklik om die maaltye saam te stel, aangesien die meeste items waarskynlik reeds byderhand is, of met min moeite of ’n vinnige rit na die supermark in die hande gekry kan word.

Ook beskikbaar in Engels, as 'Atmosfire'.

This book brings to life the untold story behind the release of Nelson Mandela, as revealed in previously top-secret records.

Kobie Coetsee, Minister of Justice at the time, kept an archive on ‘Prisoner 913’, on which the authors – a historian and a journalist – draw to retell the story. This is history as it actually happened, as opposed to how it has been portrayed up to now, even in writings by Mandela himself. 

Prisoner 913 sets right the historical record.

Jare later kom Liora, steeds verwonderd oor die skoonheid van volstruisvere, in die Klein-Karoo aan om oom Moshe te besoek. Hier ontmoet sy Candice, ook behep met volstruisvere, ’n priester, ’n kunstenares en ander Kannalanders. Haar lewe word opnuut omgedop, en weer eens lê daar ’n grens voor haar – en sy moet besluit of sy dit sal oorsteek.

Tijs Velaat is gebore op die plaas Grootgeluk in die distrik Oudtshoorn. As dit nie was vir die ongeluk met die treppie toe hy sestien word nie, het sy lewenslot dalk gelyk soos dié van die ander werksmense op die plaas. Maar ’n mens wat weet hoe om stom te wees, kry soms die hef in die hand. Tot baas Anneries weet nie aldag hoe hy dit het met Hessie se klong nie.

Tijs en sy mame woon naby die Schoemans se opstal, so naby dat hy snags die honde kan hoor snork. Hy is getuie van als wat reg én verkeerd loop op die werf: Nooi Hendrien se jaloesie wanneer Maria haar pa se guns wen, die dag toe Maria die Skotse beeldhouer ontmoet, en al die verkeerde paaie daarna. Miskien as Tijs nooit die skilpad op sy dop gekeer het nie, kon daar minder kronkels op die pad gewees het: op syne, én Maria en die Skot, én nooi Hendrien s’n.

Hierdie historiese roman speel af in ’n onstuimige era: die 1850’s tot 1914. Twee vertellers is aan die woord: Tijs Velaat en Hendrien, Andries Schoeman se vrou.

Nou kyk ons nog in ’n dowwe spieël ...

Doktor Olaf Demeyer herstel nog van sy vierdubbele hartomleiding en die trauma van vorige ondersoeke waarby hy betrokke was. Om die waarheid te sê, hy moes lankal aftree as forensiese profileerder van die SAPD. Maar dan kom vra Lucida Winterbach sy hulp. Sy glo ’n moordenaar teiken studente van haar Elegant Queens Academy, ’n skool vir skoonheid en modelwerk. Al die meisies is minderjarig, met blinkoogdrome van skoonheidstitels en modelkontrakte. Tot van hulle naak op die bodems van swembaddens in die omgewing gevind word. Olaf se lewenslange beskermingsdrang teenoor die weerloses motiveer hom om gehoor te gee aan haar versoek. Gou besef hy egter dat dit hier gaan oor soveel meer as die feite en bewyse wat ’n mens kan sien en hoor. Olaf twyfel aan sy oordeel en instinkte. Hy word geteister deur verwronge beelde van die meisies en homself.

Uiteindelik weet hy: Ons sal altyd alles slegs ten dele ken, en ons moet ’n manier vind om elke dag saam met dié wete te leef. Vir Olaf is dit daardie wete wat dreig om hom na jare in die bedryf van sy kop af te dryf.

Waarheen vlug jy as huis nie meer huis is nie?

Na jare se afpersing, agterdogtigheid en alkoholmisbruik, slaan Emma se man, Gert, haar byna in die hospitaal in. By hom kan sy nie verder bly nie, dit sal haar lewe kos. Sy vlug vanuit hulle klein myndorpie in Mpumalanga met nie veel meer as die klere aan haar rug nie. Maar waarheen en wat gemaak sonder geld, 'n werk, of familie wat haar kan ondersteun? So kies Emma koers Kaap toe, en bid vir die beste.

Die tog suid is angstig en eensaam, en uiteindelik gee haar motor die gees naby Stilbaai. Nes dit lyk of haar gebede op dowe ore val, kom 'n plaaslike boer, Dewald, tot haar redding. Noodgedwonge nooi hy haar om by hom op die plaas te bly terwyl sy wag vir die kar se herstel. Maar iets skort op Dewald se werf; die plaas boer agteruit, die olyfboorde is oorgroei, en die foto's van hom as gelukkige jonggetroude staan nog die huis vol. Dewald is te jonk om 'n wewenaar te wees, maar dis sy lot in die lewe.

Vir hom bring Emma se aankoms nuwe lig, vir haar kan hy die heenkome wees wat sy nog altyd gesoek het. Maar as hulle die liefde wat tussen hulle ontstaan wil kans gee, gaan albei eers moet vrede maak met die verlede. Want Gert het nog nie vir Emma laat gaan nie, en oudvriendin Julia wil vir Dewald hê, en sal doen wat sy moet om hierdie onverwagse inkommer uit die weg te ruim.

Marketing Research, now in its fourth edition, provides a methodical introduction to the basic concepts of marketing research.

Marketing research can be a daunting subject if not taught correctly. The mere mention of inferential statistics or statistical significance causes many students to close their minds and develop a mental block towards the topic. This is largely because most texts spend too little time teaching students the basic concepts before ploughing into the analysis of data and associated statistical formulas.

Marketing Research follows a simple layout that is easy to read with text that is written in understandable, plain English. It will equip undergraduate marketing students with the skills necessary to plan and conduct basic marketing research projects in an efficient and effective manner, in a business world which demands more and more information on which to base decisions.

Hydraulic Fracturing in the Karoo: Critical Legal and Environmental Perspectives explores a broad-ranging set of questions related to proposed hydraulic fracturing or `fracking' in the Karoo. The book is multidisciplinary, with contributors including natural scientists, social scientists, and academics from the humanities, all concerned with the ways in which scientific facts and debates about fracking have been framed and given meaning. The work comprises four parts: Part 1 provides an international, legal, energy, economic, and revenue overview of the topic. Part 2 has a physio-geographic theme, with chapters on the inter-related aspects of water, geology, geo-hydrology, seismicity and biodiversity, as well as archaeological and palaeontological considerations. Part 3 focuses on public health, and sociological and humanities-related aspects, and Part 4 addresses the relevant laws, emphasising their implementation and the role of governance. The underlying theme of Hydraulic Fracturing in the Karoo: Critical Legal and Environmental Perspectives is one of caution. The book emphasises the need for collaboration between the natural and social sciences and the responsibilities of those charged with the implementation and governance of the fracking enterprise if South Africa hopes to effectively manage fracking at all.

In hierdie versameling essays ondersoek meesterverteller Jan Nel die onvernietigbaarheid van die lewe: Immer is daar seisoene. Immer is daar ná die eb weer ’n gety; ná die winterdood weer lentelewe; ná die val weer opstaan; ná die leed weer vreugde. Dieselfde maand wat liggame opeis, stoot vars blomme uit die verwarmende grond. Uit die dooie takke van ’n boom, uit die dooie winter, kom nuwe lewe. Hoekom dan twyfel dat daar vir die mens insgelyks hoop kan wees? Op sy tipiese wyse en beeldende vertelstyl, deurweef met beide diepte en kwinkslae, ontbloot hy daardie tikkies van die ewigheid in elke liewe ding, van ’n melodie se soetheid tot goeters in ’n deurmekaar laai.

In Laataandbiegstories en sulke dinge word die leser meegevoer deur onvergeetlike stories wat om die kampvuur lewe kry.

Soms is dit humoristies, soms deernisvol, soms skerp ironies, maar altyd boeiend. Daar word vertel van die nag van die donkie, van Tante wat sag word, van Pollie van die populiere en van die intrinsieke waarde van Victor, die lelike skaaphondkruising.

In Jan Nel se kortverhale herken die leser homself onomwonde; dis juis hoekom mens lag. Die mens, met al sy swakhede, bly tog maar mens, en om te lag is soveel makliker as om jouself te kasty.
