Paperback or Softback. Condizione: New. Heartbreaker: Christiaan Barnard and the First Heart Transplant. Book.

paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. In this new biography of Chris Barnard we not only learn about the life of South Africas most famous surgeon, from his Beaufort West childhood through his studies locally and abroad to his prominent marriages and divorces but James Styan also examines the impact of the historic heart transplant on Barnards personal life and South African society at large, where apartheid legislation often made the difficulties of medicine even more convoluted. The role of black medical staff like Hamilton Naki is explored, as is the intense rivalry that arose between other famous heart surgeons and Barnard. How did Barnard manage to beat them all in this race of life and death? How much did his famous charisma have to do with it all? And in the light of his later years, his subsequent successes and considerable failures, what is Barnards legacy today? Styan covers it all in this fascinating new account of a real heartbreaker.…

233 x 151 mm; laminated pictorial wrappers; pp. x + 228, incl. index. Near-fine condition. "A blow-by-blow account of the degeneration of Eskom from global energy power-house to dysfunctional monolith . In 1998 the government was warned that the country was running out of electricity. Yet the decision was taken not to invest in new power stations. In 2007, as predicted, South Africa ran out of electricity. Eight years later the crisis has deepened and, despite assurances by government, this has the potential to become the biggest post-apartheid crisis in South Africa. By 2015 load shedding cost the economy an estimated R2 billion per day. Is the situation getting better or worse? Are the interventions working or is a blackout inevitable? What can be done and what do future scenarios look like? Blackout - The Eskom Crisis gives a compelling insight into each aspect of the energy crisis - from load shedding to leadership, policy to politics to nuclear versus renewable energy - and unpacks the debates raging in households across South Africa today.".…
