Fatal Mistakes
In August 1991, Nina de Villiers, a university student, was abducted while jogging in an affluent suburban neighbourhood, and subsequently murdered. She was the random victim of Jonathan Yeo, a man with a history of explosive violence, who later murdered a second young woman before taking his own life. Yeo had just been turned away from the United States border, where he was detained by customs officials for carrying a loaded gun, but eventually released - and allowed to keep his gun. The book recounts the life story of these two strangers from different worlds, showing how more effective intervention with Yeo could have prevented the murder. The book also describes the formation of the victims' rights group CAVEAT (Citizens Against Violence Everywhere Advocating its Termination.) by Priscilla de Villiers, Nina's mother.

AB de Villiers
'AB hopped over the boundary rope and onto the field, grinning at the sight and sound of a packed Wanderers Stadium. He swung his bat from side to side and listened to the crowd roaring his name.' So begins the wonderfully entertaining story of the rise to fame of one of South Africa's favourite sporting stars. Written specifically for youngsters aged 10 –14, it takes the reader close to all the action, and the ups and downs. AB was already building a name as a great schoolboy tennis and rugby player, but when he decided to focus on cricket the word spread quickly about a talent that could not be contained. With two brothers a lot older than him, AB learned early how to play hard and never give up. In this inspiring story we watch as AB progresses through high school, then 'varsity, and learns how to play against the best. In his first Test series, AB struggles and wonders if he's good enough to make it at this level. However, the outcome is an inspiration to sports fans and readers who love a good story.

Political Identity and Social Change
Political Identity and Social Change builds upon the constructivist theory of political identity to explore the social changes that accompanied the end of apartheid in South Africa. To gain a better understanding of how structures of identity changed along with the rest of South Africa's institutions, Frueh analyzes three social and political conflicts: the Soweto uprisings of 1976, the reformist constitutional debates of 1983–1984, and post-apartheid crime. Analyzing these conflicts demonstrates how identity labels function as structures of social discourse, how social activity is organized through these structures, and how both the labels and their power have changed during the course of South Africa's transition. In this way, the book contributes not only to the study of South African society, but also provides lessons about the relationship between identity and social change.
