Children's & young adult fiction & true stories2018The New Girl Code
by Niki Smit
Tumi Letsatsi is a 13-year old melanin kween living in Rondebosch, Cape Town. Her favourite colour is yellow, she's still trying to figure out how not to dent her afro on the bus, and how one goes about (ahem!) “french kissing”. She’s a little awkward and a lot uncertain about her future, friendships and how to put together a cool outfit! But then she stumbles across the magic of coding and creates an app called “Project Prep” that goes viral and rockets her and her friends to fame. Then everything starts to fall apart, as she deals with a catfish who befriends her and steals her code, nasty rumours at school and the newfound attention of a crush. The New Girl Code (by Niki Smit, locally edited by Buhle Ngaba) is about the wonders of working in tech, aimed at girls and young women aged 9-15. The project is an initiative of Inspiring Fifty and based on an idea by Janneke Niessen.

DER KABBALA-CODE
by Nathan Erez und Dorit Ginzburg-Silberman
DER KABBALA-CODE – Ein esoterisch-kabbalistischer Thriller von Nathan Erez und Dorit Ginzburg-Silberman Ein israelischer Thriller, der zwei scheinbar zusammenhanglose Elemente miteinander verbindet: eine Serie mysteriöser Morde und die Dechiffrierung alter kabbalistischer Texte, Ein Professor aus Jerusalem, Experte für die Entzifferung alter hebräischer Manuskripte, erhält einen geheimnisvollen Auftrag, der ihn über drei Kontinente führt. Dabei verstrickt er sich immer tiefer in ein Netz von Morden und Intrigen und sieht sich mit zahlreichen ungelösten Fragen konfrontiert. Doch sein Wissen im Bereich der Kabbala, einer mystischen Buchstaben- und Zahlenlehre ermöglicht ihm, das Unglück, das seiner Familie und vielen anderen Menschen droht, abzuwenden. Die wechselhafte Historie der Eroberungen Jerusalems und die Lehren der Kabbala sind spannungsvoll in die Erzählung gewoben. Ihre Relevanz und Bedeutung für die Geschichte wird am Ende des Buches deutlich. Der Kabbala-Code ist ein aufregender und packender Thriller. Dank seiner einzigartigen Struktur, der bereichernden Thematik des geheimen Wissens der Kabbala und der überraschenden Auflösung fesselt die Geschichte ihre Leser. Dorit Ginzburg-Silbermann hat das Buch zusammen mit dem israelischen Kabbalisten Nathan Erez (Pseudonym) geschrieben, der bis heute seine wahre Identität nicht preisgibt. Dr. Ginzburg-Silberman lehrt Literaturwissenschaft an führenden Universitäten in Israel. Sie hat zahlreiche Preise für ihre Arbeiten erhalten und an zahlreichen internationalen Seminaren teilgenommen. Dorit Ginzburg-Silbermann hat bereits 17 Bücher veröffentlicht, darunter eine Reihe von Erzählungen, zwei Kinderbücher sowie zahlreiche wissenschaftliche Aufsätze. Die italienische Ausgabe wurde im Dezember 2005 veröffentlicht und fand ein überaus positives Echo in den Medien. Die spanische Ausgabe des Buches erschien im Juni 2006, kurz darauf die portugiesische. Eine tschechische Ausgabe erschien 2008. Rechte für die deutsche Ausgabe sind noch erhältlich!

Political partiesNovember 2014The Conservative Party and the extreme right 1945–1975
by Mark Pitchford
This book, newly available in paperback, reveals the Conservative Party's relationship with the extreme right between 1945 and 1975. For the first time, this book shows how the Conservative Party, realising that its well known pre-Second World War connections with the extreme right were now embarrassing, used its bureaucracy to implement a policy of investigating extreme right groups and taking action to minimise their chances of success. The book focuses on the Conservative Party's investigation of right-wing groups, and shows how its perception of their nature determined the party bureaucracy's response. The book draws a comparison between the Conservative Party machine's negative attitude towards the extreme right and its support for progressive groups. It concludes that the Conservative Party acted as a persistent block to the external extreme right in a number of ways, and that the Party bureaucracy persistently denied the extreme right within the party assistance access to funds and representation within party organisations. It reaches a climax with the formulation of a 'plan' threatening its own candidate if he failed to remove the extreme right from the Conservative Monday Club.

Humanities & Social SciencesAugust 2021Rules and ethics
Perspectives from anthropology and history
by Morgan Clarke, Emily Corran
This book investigates the pronounced enthusiasm that many traditions display for codes of ethics characterised by a multitude of rules. Recent anthropological interest in ethics and historical explorations of 'self-fashioning' have led to extensive study of the virtuous self, but existing scholarship tends to pass over the kind of morality that involves legalistic reasoning. Rules and ethics corrects that omission by demonstrating the importance of rules in everyday moral life in a variety of contexts. In a nutshell, it argues that legalistic moral rules are not necessarily an obstruction to a rounded ethical self, but can be an integral part of it. An extended introduction first sets out the theoretical basis for studies of ethical systems that are characterised by detailed rules. This is followed by a series of empirical studies of rule-oriented moral traditions in a comparative perspective.

MedicineNovember 2023Bovine Endoscopy
by Sotirios Karvountzis
Endoscopic applications are recognised and well-established techniques in human surgery, where a variety of procedures are performed routinely. A less intrusive and labour demanding process than surgery, these procedures have great potential for use in veterinary medicine. They allow a quicker clinical recovery, minimal intrusion and risk of bacterial exposure, and a lower mortality than conventional surgical options. Beginning with an introduction to the topic and an overview of bovine anatomy, this book then discusses both mainstream and experimental applications of endoscopy in cattle. It covers: - Practical advice on preparing for the procedure and patient restraint; - Techniques including LDA corrections, RDA corrections, exploratory laparoscopy, exploratory thoracoscopy, theloscopy and umbilical hernia corrections; - Post-operative care to allow the animal to rejoin the herd at the next milking, whenever possible. Written in a practical and accessible style for veterinary practitioners and students, the book provides a thorough and complete introduction to the exciting new field of bovine endoscopy.
