Law as a profession was not Dikgang Moseneke’s first choice. As a small boy he told his aunt that he wanted to be a traffic officer, but life had other plans for him. At the young age of 15, he was imprisoned for participating in anti-apartheid activities. During his ten years of incarceration, he completed his schooling by correspondence and earned two university degrees. Afterwards he studied law at the University of South Africa. Practising law during apartheid South Africa brought with it unique challenges, especially to professionals of colour, within a fraught political climate. After some years in general legal practice and at the Bar, and a brief segue into business, Moseneke was persuaded that he would best serve the country’s young democracy by taking judicial office. All Rise covers his years on the bench, with particular focus on his 15-year term as a judge at South Africa’s apex court, the Constitutional Court, including as the deputy chief justice. As a member of the team that drafted the interim Constitution, Moseneke was well placed to become one of the guardians of its final form. His insights into the Constitutional Court’s structures, the personalities peopling it, the values it embodies, the human dramas that shook it and the cases that were brought to it make for fascinating reading

I was quite surpised at the prompt service from Exclusive books. The books from this author are exactly what I require and the complete guide far exceeds my expectations. Thank you very much
I am studying Zulu on the Duolingo platform and hoped this Zulu-English Dictionary would be a helpful resource to improve my Zulu vocabulary. Unfortunately not. Such a rich language cannot be captured in an alphabetical list of 30 x A5-pages. It is merely an introduction to isiZulu vocabulary. Maybe this was a university assignment. I can hardly use this dictionary version as a reference during my lessons. The Phrasebook is interesting and well arranged for specific topics.
