The links between manpower management, financial control and information management systems are clearly defined in Business Management (A Brief Expos) where an analysis of budgeting for manpower needed for production and marketing; basic steps in accounting procedures; and stages in data processing are expounded. It is realised that whereas the factory processes raw materials and produces goods for sale, a data processing department processes basic data and produces basic business documents and control information for management to keep them informed of events within the business.

"Supported by well researched historical narrative and economic data, Zimbabwe: the end of the first republic examines the triumphs and tribulations of the Zimbabwean national project leading to the adoption of a home-grown constitution and the July 31, 2013 elections"--Cover.
Sonnets of the Mind prove that theres beauty even in the bleakest situations: pure fantasy-filled. There are men and women who cross each others paths. Some fall in love and then break the relationship without a blink and yet others break marriages and later regret the episode. But while it lasted, they let the whirl pick them up and carry them where it willed. There is the executive who indulges in lust, alcoholism, drug abuse and promiscuity which sooner or later easily take their toll. Affluence and general decay all over the place: loss, love, revelations and social intrigue are all part of the general tone in this book. And yet in some sonnets of the mind, there are monarch butterflies with wide pulsing wings all over the place and the accumulated pleasure bursts like a sprinkler. So sweet is the moment you want it to last as long as possible; forever. However, in reality, nothing lasts forever; sooner or later the spark disappears. I only hope this collection of poems will stimulate more recital and debate in different arenas, be it at educational institutions, debating arenas or cultural gatherings.

The theme of Zimbabwe at the Crossroads is on issues of governance and economic management. The story being told is how a prosperous country at independence in 1980 has virtually turned from a bread basket to a begging bowl. After the success with A Crisis of Governance: Zimbabwe, Dr Jacob Chikuhwa continues the tragic analysis of the Zimbabwean economy. An analysis set against a backdrop of growing poverty in a country with abundant human and natural resources, this book weaves together a cast of socio-economic factors that form the causes of the economic quagmire. This academic exposé brings to the fore the desperate hope for democracy and economic recovery in Zimbabwe. International donor agencies and institutions specialising in African development studies will be delighted with Jacob Chikuhwa’s latest instalment whose driving force is the statistical analysis of events in the southern African country.
This book adopts a holistic approach to identifying what could be done to surmount the corruption conundrum in the African continent. It acknowledges the objective reality of corruption in Africa, and identifies primary solutions to the issue. The volume takes a socio-legal approach in order to reveal the nature and extent of corruption, and suggests that solutions can be found simply by interrogating how society reacts to it. In conjunction with this, the book identifies and critiques constraints in the formation of a definitive definition of corruption. As shown here, although it is critical for African states to develop anti-corruption strategies, the solution to the problem requires an understanding of the significance of political will, and how the lack thereof has led to the endurance of corruption in Africa.
This book explores African domestic and regional responses and approaches to environmental protection and sustainability. Written by African experts, the collection consists of five parts covering the whole of Africa. It provides broad coverage of specific themes, including environmental constitutionalism, climate change, gender and the environment, wildlife trade, environmental justice, and human displacement. The key aims are first, to explore theoretical and empirical studies to interrogate and provide clarity on academic discourse on how and whether environmental human rights approaches and policy implications have effectively enhanced environmental protection and sustainability at Afric...

The history of the transmission of the biblical text is definitely an empirical subject, for it has left in its trail textual evidence, much of it available for research and evaluation. Thanks to the great advances in philology in general, the discipline of biblical philology has been released from the bonds of religious polemics and has become an important tool for straightforward, literal interpretation, with Protestant researchers leading the way. Revealing the Holy Spirit in Humans: Stories from the Bible is meant to be a continued adherence to the popular historical interpretation of the sanctity of the Holy Spirit in particular and not as a disregard for the available textual evidence ...
A Crisis of Governance is a detailed analysis of Zimbabwean socioeconomic history and development since the nation achieved independence from Great Britain in April 1980, with a focus on recent events under President Robert Mugabe and the ZANU (Patriotic Front). An internationally-trained African economic analyst, Jacob Chikuhwa studies this former British colony's struggle to become a viable independent state. Problems range from the need for constitutional reform to political patronage and a de facto one-party democracy and the need for transparency in land reform, privatization, and economic liberalization.
