Klerksdorp Spheres Enigma explores the mystery surrounding the Klerksdorp Spheres, unique geological formations found in South Africa's ancient pyrophyllite deposits. Dating back approximately 3 billion years to the Archean Eon, these near-perfect metallic spheres have sparked debate about their origins. The book specifically investigates the geological processes and mineralogical composition behind these spheres, offering insights into early Earth history and challenging conventional geological knowledge. The book argues that these spheres are the result of natural geological phenomena like concretion formation and mineral alteration. Using data from field observations and mineralogical analyses, it examines the spheres' physical characteristics, such as size, shape, and internal structure. Detailed analysis of the mineral content is presented using X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. The book also explores various formation models, including mineral precipitation around a nucleus within sediment and the potential role of microbial activity. This investigation differentiates fact from speculation, providing a comprehensive overview of existing geological knowledge applied to this geological enigma. Targeted toward students, researchers, and enthusiasts, Klerksdorp Spheres Enigma progresses systematically, beginning with the geological context and moving through detailed mineralogical analysis and formation theories. By focusing on a geological explanation, the book offers a unique and valuable perspective on a controversial topic, excluding unsupported theories and acknowledging ongoing scientific debates. Ultimately, understanding the Klerksdorp Spheres provides insights into mineral formation processes applicable in various geological settings, including mineral exploration.

South Africa possesses one of the richest popular music traditions in the world - from marabi to mbaqanga, from boeremusiek to bubblegum, from kwela to kwaito. Yet the risk that future generations of South Africans will not know their musical roots is very real. Of all the recordings made here since the 1930s, thousands have been lost for ever, for the powers-that-be never deemed them worthy of preservation. And if one peruses the books that exist on South African popular music, one still fi nds that their authors have on occasion jumped to conclusions that were not as foregone as they had assumed. Yet the fault lies not with them, rather in the fact that there has been precious little documentation in South Africa of who played what, or who recorded what, with whom, and when. This is true of all music-making in this country, though it is most striking in the musics of the black communities. Beyond Memory: Recording the History, Moments and Memories of South African Music is an invaluable publication because it offers a first-hand account of the South African music scene of the past decades from the pen of a man, Max Thamagana Mojapelo, who was situated in the very thick of things, thanks to his job as a deejay at the South African Broadcasting Corporation. This book - astonishing for the breadth of its coverage - is based on his diaries, on interviews he conducted and on numerous other sources, and we find in it not only the well-known names of recent South African music but a countless host of others whose contribution must be recorded if we and future generations are to gain an accurate picture of South African music history of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

The Acambaro collection comprises hundreds of clay figurines that are apparently thousands of years old; however, they depict such bizarre animals and scenes that most archaeologists dismiss them as an elaborate hoax. The collection shows humans interacting with dinosaurs and various other 'monsters' such as horned men. Both Hapgood and Earl Stanley Gardner were convinced that the figurines from Acambaro were authentic ancient artifacts that indicated that men and dinosaurs had cohabited together in the recent past, and that dinosaurs had not become extinct many millions of years ago as commonly thought. David Hatcher Childress writes a lengthy introduction concerning Acambaro, the latest testing, and other evidence of 'living' dinosaurs.

Deep in lost history, did high civilizations and advanced knowledge thrive? The ancient Vedic literatures of India describe a worldwide civilization that flourished at a time when modern historians insist that humans like us existed simply as hunter-gatherers. This Vedic civilization, centered in India, employed technologies based on a scientific understanding of the physical elements and forces we know today, as well as more subtle conscious elements. Devamrita Swami, who has spent a lifetime in his own search for Vedic India, takes us on a journey of intellectual discovery through the history of the remarkable Vedic civilization and its knowledge, locked in the ancient literatures of India. His wit and wisdom combine to make our search for Vedic India not only illuminating but entertaining. He tells us not only the truths of Vedic India, but how they are again coming to be. Searching for Vedic India thus takes us not only into the past, but into the future.

In all reality, any reasonable theories need to be fully evaluated. All the world leadingarcheological teams need to combine their resources, all the available information needs to beaccessed and viewed together as a whole; all of the monuments need to be examined "en masse"and all the existing ancient texts from all countries need to be studied together as one, though dueto the worlds populations constant religious and racial bickering such a thing may never actuallyoccur.Many of these ancient tales have always been viewed exclusively as myth and fantasy, butwhen these ancient 'myths' are corroborated by each other and by physical evidence and whensuch inexplicable evidence is in turn found to be adequately explained by the myths then it standsto logic and reason that perhaps a more detailed scrutiny may perhaps be in order.Could some of these ancient texts and scriptures actually contain complex scientificinformation, hidden within the narrative in the form of code or numerology as Newton and manyothers have believed?Is there a coming 'Armageddon?'

This collection of interviews explores the role of religion in the lives of eminent South Africans who led the struggle against apartheid. Nelson Mandela, Chris Hani, Desmond Tutu, Nadine Gordimer, and seventeen other political, religious, and cultural leaders share the beliefs and values that informed the moral positions they adopted, often at great cost. From all ethnic, religious, and political backgrounds, these men and women have shaped one of the greatest political transformations of the century. What emerges from the interviews are reflections on all aspects of life in an embattled country. There are stories of the homelands and townships, and tales of imprisonment and exile. Dedicated communists relate their intense youthful devotion to Christianity; Muslim activists discuss the complexity of their relationships with their communities. As the respondents grapple with difficult questions about faith, politics, and authority, they expose a more personal picture: of their daily lives, of their pasts, and of the enormous conflicts that arise in a society that continually strains the moral fiber of its citizens. Taken together, these interviews reveal the many-faceted vision that has fueled South Africa's struggle for democracy.

Popular Politics in the History of South Africa, 1400–1948 offers an inclusive vision of South Africa's past. Drawing largely from original sources, Paul Landau presents a history of the politics of the country's people, from the time of their early settlements in the elevated heartlands, through the colonial era, to the dawn of Apartheid. A practical tradition of mobilization, alliance, and amalgamation persisted, mutated, and occasionally vanished from view; it survived against the odds in several forms, in tribalisms, Christian assemblies, and other, seemingly hybrid movements; and it continues today. Landau treats southern Africa broadly, concentrating increasingly on the southern Highveld and ultimately focusing on a transnational movement called the 'Samuelites'. He shows how people's politics in South Africa were suppressed and transformed, but never entirely eliminated.
