In his autobiographical book The Vanishing Nation, Thami Nodwele recounts his story as a black child growing up in apartheid South Africa and his life amid the post-apartheid challenges. He recognises that since the country's shift to democracy in 1994, life is different, but also increasingly harder as crime and unemployment have escalated. There is a sense of living in a hopelessness society, filled with empty promises and controlled by crime – in government, the corporate sector and common crime that leaves people in anguish. He contemplates the hazy future being mapped out for South Africans whether they are new-born babies or the elderly. Thami Nodwele began writing books in his final-year theology studies. His lecturer Hank Pott encouraged him to pursue his craft after reading some of his assignments and challenged him to complete his debut manuscript within three months. Consequently, Nodwele wrote the harrowing story about a young boy who had been molested and murdered by his football coach after its exposure in the news. The child's mother had been paying the coach to train her son and in return, he had abused and eventually murdered him. Nodwele was deeply affected by that event and used his anger and frustration to ensure a death, committed at the hands of an evil, selfish man meant to protect a child, was not in vain. He used words to express the pain a mother feels in losing her son as well as the fear the child experienced while being molested yet unable to speak out.

James Lovelock described his previous book, The Revenge of Gaia, as 'a wake-up call for humanity'. Stark though it was in many respects, in The Vanishing Face of Gaia Lovelock says that even though the weather seems cooler and pollution lessens as the recession bites, the environmental problems we will face in the twenty-first century are even more terrifying than he previously realised. The Arctic and Antarctic ice-caps are melting very quickly, and water shortages and natural disasters are more common occurrences than at any time in recent history. The civilisations of many countries will be jeopardised and life as we know it severely disrupted. Almost all predictions of the likely rate of climate change have been based on estimates which professional observers in the real worldnow show are consistently underestimating the true rate of change. As a global community we continue to be fixated by conventional 'green' ideas which we believe will help save our world. Lovelock argues that only Gaia theory, which he originated over forty years ago, can really help us understand the crisis fully. The root problem is that there are too many people and animals for the Earth to carry. And there is in fact only one possible procedure which might bring a permanent cure for climate change, but we are unlikely to adopt it. 'Our wish to continue business as usual will probably prevent us from saving ourselves' says Lovelock, so we must adapt as best we can and try to ensure that enough of us survive to allow a more capable species to evolve from us. There could hardly be a more important message for humankind. James Lovelock has been an active and accurate observer of the Earth environment since the 1960s and was the first to find CFCs and other gases accumulating in the air. His Gaia theory provides insight into climate change in the coming century.This is his final warning.

Poverty and violence are issues of global importance. In Poverty, War, and Violence in South Africa, Clifton Crais explores the relationship between colonial conquest and the making of South Africa's rural poor. Based on a wealth of archival sources, this detailed history changes our understanding of the origins of the gut-wrenching poverty that characterizes rural areas today. Crais shifts attention away from general models of economic change and focuses on the enduring implications of violence in shaping South Africa's past and present. Crais details the devastation wrought by European forces and their African auxiliaries. Their violence led to wanton bloodshed, large-scale destruction of property, and famine. Crais explores how the survivors struggled to remake their lives, including the adoption of new crops, and the world of inequality and vulnerability colonial violence bequeathed. He concludes with a discussion of contemporary challenges and the threats to democracy in South Africa.
