Stitched-up
This feisty and inspiring treatise blames the destructive cultural myth of female self-sacrifice for the desire for breast implants, the conservative insistence on family values, and the general cultural attitude that prevents women from supporting one another's accomplishments. Using everything from psychological analysis to clever fairy-tale parodies--called "fairer tales"--the author promotes an ideology for women that is neither bra-burning feminism nor passive conservatism, but rather a belief in self-development.

Grappling with Change in Africa
This book brings revolution to the African continent. It makes it clear that for Africans to advance in life they require a different approach to life. The book uses proverbs and wise sayings from Africa to enhance the notion that Africa as a continent appreciates issues about change and other players from outside the continent get a buy-in into change management. It is now generally accepted that from Cape to Cairo one sees a continent pregnant with resources but it is classified as the poorest by bank balance. The book uses African wisdom to help readers around the world to appreciate the African transformation. Change is always hardest at the beginning but it gets easier and better as days transform into years. Nothing in life changes without change. The book suggests ways of how Africa can swing the pendulum and rise to be a global shining star by owning and using its natural resources wisely and embracing transformational leadership. This would rewrite the economic order and turn the richest poor continent into a super rich continent.
Kill the Princess
Emotional intelligence expert and motivational speaker Vermeulen (EQ: Emotional Intelligence for Everyone ) wont help revitalize feminism with this stereotyping polemic against what she sees as womens terminal self-sacrifice. Touching on issues like body image, mother-daughter relationships and societal constraints, Vermeulen offers not a self-help seminar for unhappy women, but a one-sided lecture telling them why theyre depressed (men have suppressed them) and how to gain power over their lives (find their life work and their inner bitch). Vermeulen uses feminist fairy tales to make her point. In Jane and the Brainstalk, for instance, Jack pumps iron while sister Jane draws water, harvests...
Woman Today
On June 28th, 1952, the first edition of a programme especially for women was broadcast on the SABC. It was called 'Woman's World'. These were the days when the presenter would wear a hat and gloves to go down to the Union Castle mail ships to scoop her story.
About Face
Distinctive and unique, facial appearance is hugely important in every encounter we will ever have. From the concept of beauty to the social ill of discrimination, the importance of the face in our interpersonal interactions is certainly known. But have you ever thought about the role your face plays in your day-to-day life, or the way your face may have determined the outcome of an incident from your past? In About Face, twenty-five writers tackle this question, each using the same simple framework of an opening paragraph that objectively considers what they see when they look in the mirror. Each writer then details an experience that transpired, in one way or another, because of the face t...
