The concept of this little book is a language book to the sounds of the language. Also, the phrases chosen to be included, are odd - different from the usual phrases one would find in a language book. The only way this book would have any use is to be sat alongside a native speaker of the languages, and ask them what the word should sound like. This beautiful book contains words and phrases in four major South African languages: English, Afrikaans, Xhosa, and Zulu. It is aimed at adults and children. Speaking a few words to a person in his own language improves relationships and builds friendships. The book is aimed at people of all ages who wish to learn a few words or phrases in any of these four languages. The words are arranged under 43 subjects for easy reference. More than 500 color photos of the real objects are included to illustrate words and phrases. It is an extremely useful book for tourists and the first five subjects are included especially for South Africans living overseas.

Imagination and the Creative Impulse in the New Literatures in Englishbrings together the proceedings of a symposium organised by the editors at the University of Trento in 1990. At a time when the study of the post-colonial literatures is gaining more widespread recognition, scholars based mainly at universities in Italy and Germany were invited to address the manner in which writers are giving literary expression to the complexity of contemporary post-colonial and multicultural societies and to consider, from their differing perspectives on the new literatures, central questions of formal experimentation, linguistic innovation, social and political commitment, textual theory and cross-culturality. Focusing on such major writers such as Achebe, Soyinka and Walcott, as well as on lesser-known figures such as Jack Davis, Witi Ihimaera, Rohinton Mistry and Manohar Malgonkar, the contributors take up many themes characteristic of the new literatures: the challenge posed to traditional authority, the expression of national identity, the role of literature in the liberation struggle, modes of literary practice in multicultural societies; the relationship of the new literatures in English to that of the former metropolitan centre; and the complex intertextuality characterizing much of the literary production of post-colonial societies.

Twenty-three-year-old Jillian Reilly went to southern Africa in 1993 at the close of apartheid, desperate to 'do good'. She only planned to stay for six months, but the promise of playing savior was just too great. Jillian's career in the aid industry flourished. To all the world, she looked like a successful 'do-gooder' - even a precocious one. If only she weren't being suffocated by her own sense of futility. Jillian left southern Africa in 2000 quite clear that the only person she could save was herself. 'Shame' is her story: the story of a young American woman growing up, and old, in Africa. Realizing her own limitations, and the sorry realities of the big business of doing good.

The congruencies between psychology and law are explored in this collection of learning objectives, exercises, and reference material that addresses the intersection of these two disciplines. In addition to practical topics such as crime and policing, the detection of deception and truthfulness, dangerousness and the risk of violence, and the employment of the psychologist as expert witness, it also discusses modern moral issues such as the role and treatment of child witnesses in legal proceedings, investigative psychology and psychological profiling, and the use of insanity and diminished capacity defenses.
