Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What does it take to be a flippen brilliant South African? Simple: sheer brilliance and a good story. So, whether naughty or noble, crazy or controversial, here are 50 of the most talented, successful, inspirational, intriguing, fascinating Saffers to have walked the planet.Of course, there are the great statesmen (Mandela, Luthuli, Smuts), the landmark achievers (Charlize Theron, Chris Barnard) and the incredible talents (Miriam Makeba, Irma Stern), but the lesser-knowns will also make a case: such as Ntshingwayo Khoza, the conqueror at Isandlwana; Ampie Roux, the atom-bomb creator; Ryan Sandes, the world's best trail runner.As will the honorary inclusions (Churchill, Rodriguez, Gandhi) and the previously scorned (Mbeki, Shaka). But how exactly does Winnie Madikizela-Mandela qualify? From space adventurers (Mark Shuttleworth) and fighter pilots (Sailor Malan) to entrepreneurs (Elon Musk) and environmentalists (Ian Player), this is a raucous celebration of the country we call home, proving that you just can't have the bad without the good.Picking up where he left off with the bestselling 50 People Who Stuffed Up South Africa (also nominated for the Bookseller's Choice Award in 2011), Alexander Parker's irreverent but scathing writing is once again brought to life by Zapiro, who adds the finishing touches with his iconic caricatures.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. We all know that you cant change your genes, but the latest science is increasingly revealing that you can affect the way they express. For adventurer Peter van Kets, this understanding reveals a profound truth: that you can actively cultivate resilience, perhaps the most important character trait for success in todays world. The proof is literally in his DNA.As an endurance athlete, Peter has repeatedly proven that he has what it takes to endure the toughest adventure challenges. Perhaps surprisingly, he has always claimed that this resilience is not innate; that he has learnt how to develop it over time. In his second book, Grin & Bear It!, Peter reveals how a genetics analysis showed this to be true; he has, in fact, had to defy his genetic predispositions to complete the incredible physical and mental feats on his resume.So, how has he conquered some of the most extreme conditions on earth, whether rowing across the Atlantic on his own, battling to the South Pole, or adventuring through Africa? In this book, he lays out his formula: success in todays world is based on resilience (a.k.a. grit, endurance or resolve ), which is fuelled primarily by passion. Since the arrival of Covid-19, people everywhere have had to dig deep in order to survive the uncertainly in their personal and business lives.Never before has the power of resilience been so vital. Grin & Bear It! shows that you dont have to be born with it: you too can stimulate the passion needed not just to endure, but to conquer todays significant challenges. We all know that you cant change your genes, but the latest science is increasingly revealing that you can affect the way they express. For adventurer Peter van Kets, this understanding reveals a profound truth: that you can actively cultivate resilience, perhaps the most important character trait for success in todays world.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In 2009, Canadian entrepreneur Mike Quinn packed his backpack and moved to Lusaka, Zambia on a mission to find African entrepreneurs building scalable, high-impact businesses. There he stumbled across two South African brothers who had founded a business to help unbanked smallholder farmers receive mobile payments in a market where cash was king.After convincing his retired parents to mortgage their house and lend him $100,000, Mike joined as a co-founder of Zoona and became CEO for nine of the next ten years. With his partners, Mike built a network of more than 3,000 entrepreneur agents across Zambia and Malawi that enabled millions of unbanked consumers to send and receive $2.5-billion in money transfers and remittances.Headquartered in Cape Town, Zoona raised over $35-million of venture investment and operated on the leading edge of Africa's emerging fintech ecosystem. Mike's remarkable story gives a rare and honest glimpse into the workings of a pioneering African startup through the lens of a purpose-driven entrepreneur who went "all in".Zoona faced tremendous adversity along the way: currency crises, investment round collapses, ruthless pushback from the major mobile network operators, and a continuous internal struggle to discover and execute a growth strategy that matched the company's billion-dollar ambition.It was by failing to win that Mike learned what entrepreneurship - specifically entrepreneurship in Africa - is all about, and it was what motivated him to double down and try again.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. For fly-fishermen everywhere, the news of an upcoming book from Tom Sutcliffe is as exciting as a ten-pound wild rainbow on a 4X tippet. Yet More Sweet Days certainly lives up to the weight of expectation from his many fans, all over the world internationally. It races upstream in leaps and bounds, taking you to places you've always wanted to fish: you'll wade the high mountain rivers of the Eastern Cape, clamber along the boulder-strewn crystal streams of the Western Cape, throw a dainty dry on hallowed English chalkstreams, and fight fresh-run salmon in rugged Iceland with a volcano belching ash behind your casting shoulder. You'll pick up tips and ideas (almost without realising it) from a master trout fisherman who has done more for the beautiful sport in South Africa than anyone, ever. Along the way you'll soak yourself warmly in a philosophy that embraces fish and birds, people and animals - a philosophy honed by thousands of kilometres of stalking up streams and countless cups of coffee brewed on a stove perched on the tailgate of his fishing truck. Complemented by many original artworks from the author, this beautiful book is at once a rumination, a reflection and a profound escape for fly fishermen everywhere; when you're not actually casting at trout, this is the next best thing. [credit: Paul Curtis]"I've known Tom Sutcliffe for three decades, and always admired his writing. This new book is an intimate look at the sport that we all love so well" - Gary Borger "Tom Sutcliffe has raised the bar yet again. Yet More Sweet Days has as much to do with life as with fly fishing. For me, his best work yet. And that's high praise!" - Clem Booth Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …
