Rich with historical narratives, personal recollections, reflections on politics, environmental debates, social observation, and practical travel information, this honest and opinionated book is a far cry from the typical sponsored travel guide.

Fair Game
Fair Game tells the story of the Kruger's hidden history and heritage, from its establishment as the Sabi Reserve in 1898 to its eventual declaration as a national park, and beyond. It's an engrossing tale filled with stubborn personalities, twists of fate, unlikely heroes, greedy villains and (luckily) a very happy ending. So, prepare yourself for a grand historical safari as we recount the little-known tale of an unwanted wasteland that grew into the one of the greatest game reserves in the world.The Kruger National Park is an internationally renowned wildlife sanctuary and one of South Africa's top tourist attractions. However, this wasn't always the case. For the first 30 years of the park's existence, it was very unpopular and many people downright hated the idea of a reserve dedicated to the preservation of animals ('But what's the point of looking at the things?', one critic decried). In fact, without the dedication and fortitude of a handful of champions, the park would likely have been abandoned, diluted or deproclaimed altogether. Also included: a comprehensive planning guide and custom maps to help you make the most of your visit to the Kruger National Park.

Self-Identity after Brain Injury
An injury to the brain can affect virtually any aspect of functioning and, at the deepest level, can alter sense of self or the essential qualities that define who we are. In recent years, there has been a growing body of research investigating changes to self in the context of brain injury. Developments in the cognitive and social neurosciences, psychotherapy and neurorehabilitation have together provided a rich perspective on self and identity reformation after brain injury. This book draws upon these theoretical perspectives and research findings to provide a comprehensive account of the impact of brain injury on self-identity. The second half of this book provides an in-depth review of c...

Mapungubwe
Between AD 900 and 1300, the Shashe-Limpopo basin in Limpopo Province witnessed the development of an ancient civilisation. Like civilisations everywhere, it consisted of a complex social organisation supported by intensive agriculture and long-distance trade. The Mapungubwe Cultural Landscape, as it is now known, was the forerunner of the famous town of Great Zimbabwe, situated about 200 kilometres to the north, and its cultural connection to Great Zimbabwe and the Venda people allows archaeologists to reconstruct its evolution. This generously illustrated book tells the story of an African civilisation that began more than 1000 years ago. It is the first in a series of accessible books written by specialists for visitors to South Africa’s World Heritage Sites.

The reader will find a detailed history of the precursors to this model of thought, its development through its proponents such as Harold Goodglass, Nelson Butters, Laird Cermak, and Norman Geschwind, and its continuing legacy.
