A “brilliant” (Lupita Nyong’o, ＜em＞Time＜/em＞), “poignant” (＜em＞Entertainment Weekly＜/em＞), “soul-nourishing” (＜em＞USA Today＜/em＞) memoir about coming of age during the twilight of apartheid＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Noah’s childhood stories are told with all the hilarity and intellect that characterizes his comedy, while illuminating a dark and brutal period in South Africa’s history that must never be forgotten.”ー＜em＞Esquire＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Winner of the Thurber Prize for American Humor and an NAACP Image Award ? Named one of the best books of the year by ＜em＞The New York Time, USA Today, San Francisco Chronicle,＜/em＞ NPR, ＜em＞Esquire, Newsday,＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Booklist＜/em＞**＜/p＞ ＜p＞Trevor Noah’s unlikely path from apartheid South Africa to the desk of ＜em＞The Daily Show＜/em＞ began with a criminal act: his birth. Trevor was born to a white Swiss father and a black Xhosa mother at a time when such a union was punishable by five years in prison. Living proof of his parents’ indiscretion, Trevor was kept mostly indoors for the earliest years of his life, bound by the extreme and often absurd measures his mother took to hide him from a government that could, at any moment, steal him away. Finally liberated by the end of South Africa’s tyrannical white rule, Trevor and his mother set forth on a grand adventure, living openly and freely and embracing the opportunities won by a centuries-long struggle.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Born a Crime＜/em＞ is the story of a mischievous young boy who grows into a restless young man as he struggles to find himself in a world where he was never supposed to exist. It is also the story of that young man’s relationship with his fearless, rebellious, and fervently religious motherーhis teammate, a woman determined to save her son from the cycle of poverty, violence, and abuse that would ultimately threaten her own life.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The stories collected here are by turns hilarious, dramatic, and deeply affecting. Whether subsisting on caterpillars for dinner during hard times, being thrown from a moving car during an attempted kidnapping, or just trying to survive the life-and-death pitfalls of dating in high school, Trevor illuminates his curious world with an incisive wit and unflinching honesty. His stories weave together to form a moving and searingly funny portrait of a boy making his way through a damaged world in a dangerous time, armed only with a keen sense of humor and a mother’s unconventional, unconditional love.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,555円 |

 Iron Fist From The Sea South Africa's Seaborne Raiders 1978-1988【電子書籍】[ Arn? S?derlund ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This seminal work documents the clandestine sea borne operations undertaken by South Africa’s 4 Reconnaissance Commando Regiment. It breathtakingly reveals the versatility and effectiveness of this elite unit which worked with a range of other South African and Rhodesian forces, including the Rhodesian SAS, to engage in a range of raiding and war fighting activities. These operations saw the clandestine reconnaissance of harbors, the sinking of enemy shipping and the destruction of shore installations in Angola and Mozambique. Just some of the tasks undertaken by this extraordinary maritime capability which totaled no more than 45 operators, both black and white!＜/p＞ ＜p＞With unparalleled access to previously secret material, the authors, both of whom worked to develop 4 Recce’s operating capabilities, trace the origins of the Regiment back to the 1970’s when the South African’s determined the need for a maritime force projection capability. They relate how maritime doctrine was developed within South Africa’s wider Special Forces capability and how joint operational approaches were configured with the South African Navy. This saw the development of a range of swimmer, reconnaissance, diving and boat operator training courses, along with the design of specialist raiding craft and amphibious assault platforms, which were originated to operate from the Navy’s existing shipping and submarines. All of which demonstrated the immense potential of this newly emergent force and the resourcefulness of its individual operators. Required to successfully complete a grueling selection process, the operators of 4 Recce were relentlessly tested to prove their physical and mental mettle, not to mention their leadership skills and initiative.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Steyn and S?derlund’s chronological analysis of the operations undertaken by 4 Recce and the South African Navy is stunning to behold. They impartially detail the secret and specialized actions which saw both success and failure. From Cabinda on the West Coast to Tanzania on the East, 4 Recce, and whose existence and capability was largely kept secret even within the South African Defence Force, conducted numerous clandestine raids. They attacked shipping and strategic targets such as oil facilities, transport infrastructure and even ANC offices. And sometimes the raids did go wrong, spectacularly so in one instance when two operators were killed and Captain Wynand Du Toit was captured. He was later paraded in front of the world’s media, much to the embarrassment of the South African government.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This is a fascinating work and one that will enthrall anyone with an interest in Special Forces operations. Profusely illustrated with many previously unpublished photographs, it stands as a testament to the author’s endeavors as, respectively, the former Operations Commander of 4 Recce and the former Commander Task Group of the SA Navy - as well as the incredible operators of 4 Recce.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Explosive and compulsive, Iron Fist from the Sea takes you right to the raging surf; to the adrenaline and fear that is sea borne raiding...＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,170円 |

 Reynolds Unraveling the Dark Threads of a Small Town: A Southern Gothic Tale of Mystery and Redemption【電子書籍】[ Randall Davies ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In 'Reynolds', Randall Davies masterfully navigates the intricate tapestry of human emotions and societal constructs through the lens of a young man'??s tumultuous journey of self-discovery. Set against a richly woven backdrop that blends the historical with the contemporary, the narrative employs a lyrical prose style that is both evocative and immersive. Davies deftly juxtaposes the struggles of the protagonist with broader themes of identity, inheritance, and the relentless quest for belonging, thereby situating the novel within the tradition of coming-of-age literature while infusing it with a distinctive modern sensibility. Randall Davies is known for his keen insights into the human condition, drawing from his diverse experiences as an educator and cultural commentator. Having spent years exploring the intersections of art and personal narrative, Davies came to write 'Reynolds' as a reflection of his own encounters with the complexities of identity and heritage. His previous works, which often grapple with similar themes, serve as a testament to his commitment to exploring the nuances of the human experience. Highly recommended for readers seeking a thoughtful exploration of personal and collective identity, 'Reynolds' offers both literary beauty and deep philosophical inquiry.

 Colonel Carter of Cartersville A Southern Gentleman's Journey Through a Changing World【電子書籍】[ Francis Hopkinson Smith ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In "Colonel Carter of Cartersville," Francis Hopkinson Smith presents a vivid portrait of life in the American South during the Reconstruction era. The novel, characterized by its rich, descriptive style and wry humor, follows the eponymous Colonel Carter, a charming but somewhat impractical Southern gentleman, as he navigates personal challenges and societal changes. Smith's narrative is imbued with a keen sense of place, illustrating both the idyllic and tumultuous aspects of Southern life, and examines themes of honor, resilience, and the complexities of post-war identity through engaging characterization and lively dialogue. Francis Hopkinson Smith, an accomplished author, artist, and engineer, drew from his own Southern roots and experiences when crafting this tale. Born in 1838, Smith's multifaceted career encompassed both civic engineering and a thriving artistic practice, all of which provided him with a unique lens through which to view the cultural landscape of his time. His deep empathy for human resilience is reflected in Colonel Carter, whose story resonates with Smith's own values of integrity and humor amid adversity. I highly recommend "Colonel Carter of Cartersville" to readers interested in an evocative exploration of Southern life post-Civil War. Smith's masterful storytelling, complemented by sharp wit and genuine warmth, invites readers to reflect on the past while shedding light on the timeless struggles of identity and belonging.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 150円 |

 In Love With A Southern King【電子書籍】[ K.L. Hall Hall ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Angel Harrington is the definition of an independent woman. She has a level head and grounded spirit. She never looked for a man to take care of her, even after meeting and falling in love with Saint Phillips, who started as just a corner boy for her father’s drug empire. The two spent many years together until her father’s death and his rise as the next in command tore them apart. Still heartbroken over how they ended, she has a problem with trust and commitment when it comes to Saint or any other man that comes her way. When she learns of something that could upset the empire that Saint has worked so hard to maintain, and with her father’s blood, sweat and tears in it, she has to choose whether to ride or let their opportunity for a second chance between them die. Saint Phillips is the CEO of King’s Playhouse, Atlanta’s most popular new strip club. He’s happy that he has found another way to clean his illegal revenue, but heavy is the head that wears the crown. When his empire is tested, he’ll have to rely on his power to settle a war that’s brewing in the streets all while appearing to remain knee deep in making the Playhouse a success. Reese and Omari Grant are the definition of a true power couple. He’s part owner of the King’s Playhouse and she’s a certified nurse midwife. They were high school sweethearts and have been together for seven years. She believes that the two of them are soulmates and are living their happily ever after, but when Omari begins to struggle with the seven-year itch, a strong whiff of temptation could ruin their happy home for good. Things come crashing down all around them when Reese learns he’s not the man she’s made him out to be. Sierra Gray was born poor and refuses to die that way. As the premier dancer at King’s Playhouse, she doesn’t have a problem using what she has to get what she needs. When she’s roped into a deal with a devil from her past, she devises her own plan to keep herself fit in Gucci and Gold forever, but who will she bring down in order to lift herself up? In a business where sex, money and greed rule everything around them, everybody’s out for something. Will they sell their souls for the almighty dollar or walk away with something more valuable, love?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 421円 |

 The Life of Jefferson Davis A Detailed Portrait of a Southern Statesman and President of the Confederacy【電子書籍】[ Frank H. Alfriend ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In "The Life of Jefferson Davis," Frank H. Alfriend offers a comprehensive biography of the contentious figure who served as the President of the Confederate States during the American Civil War. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources, Alfriend employs a narrative style that blends meticulous historical detail with engaging prose, ultimately humanizing Davis while situating him within the broader context of 19th-century American politics and society. The book delves into Davis'??s early life, his military and political ambitions, and his controversial leadership of the Confederacy, examining the complexities of his character and ideology, against the turbulent backdrop of a divided nation. Frank H. Alfriend was a journalist and historian whose passion for elucidating complex historical figures and events significantly shaped his approach in this biography. His deep interest in the South's legacy and the Civil War fueled his examination of Davis, a man often obscured by the stigma of the Confederacy. Alfriend'??s dedication to presenting a balanced narrative reflects not only his commitment to historical accuracy but also his desire to foster understanding amid divisiveness. This work is essential for readers seeking a nuanced exploration of a pivotal yet polarizing figure in American history. Alfriend's thorough research and thoughtful analysis encourage a reevaluation of Davis beyond simplistic interpretations, making it a vital addition to the libraries of historians, students, and anyone interested in the legacies of the Civil War.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 150円 |
 The Making of a Racist A Southerner Reflects on Family, History, and the Slave Trade【電子書籍】[ Charles B. Dew ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In this powerful memoir, Charles Dew, one of America’s most respected historians of the South--and particularly its history of slavery--turns the focus on his own life, which began not in the halls of enlightenment but in a society unequivocally committed to segregation.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dew re-creates the midcentury American South of his childhood--in many respects a boy’s paradise, but one stained by Lost Cause revisionism and, worse, by the full brunt of Jim Crow. Through entertainments and "educational" books that belittled African Americans, as well as the living examples of his own family, Dew was indoctrinated in a white supremacy that, at best, was condescendingly paternalistic and, at worst, brutally intolerant. The fear that southern culture, and the "hallowed white male brotherhood," could come undone through the slightest flexibility in the color line gave the Jim Crow mindset its distinctly unyielding quality. Dew recalls his father, in most regards a decent man, becoming livid over a black tradesman daring to use the front, and not the back, door.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The second half of the book shows how this former Confederate youth and descendant of Thomas Roderick Dew, one of slavery’s most passionate apologists, went on to reject his racist upbringing and become a scholar of the South and its deeply conflicted history. The centerpiece of Dew’s story is his sobering discovery of a price circular from 1860--an itemized list of humans up for sale. Contemplating this document becomes Dew’s first step in an exploration of antebellum Richmond’s slave trade that investigates the terrible--but, to its white participants, unremarkable--inhumanity inherent in the institution.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dew’s wish with this book is to show how the South of his childhood came into being, poisoning the minds even of honorable people, and to answer the question put to him by Illinois Browning Culver, the African American woman who devoted decades of her life to serving his family: "Charles, why do the grown-ups put so much hate in the children?"＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,094円 |

 Decolonizing English Language Textbooks Engaging in a South-North Inter-epistemic Dialogue【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Bringing together diverse perspectives from authors situated in both the Global South and the Global North, this ground-breaking volume takes a critical, decolonial, and global southern approach to exploring colonial epistemologies and pedagogies surrounding textbook discourses and research.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Using a South-North inter-epistemic dialogue, the book challenges conventional notions of undertaking research that includes local ways of knowing and Indigenous knowledge. By doing so, the book disrupts colonial ideologies, values, and culture, and instead suggests local Indigenous frameworks and methodologies for textbook research and epistemology.

 Negotiating Pharmaceutical Uncertainty Women's Agency in a South African HIV Prevention Trial【電子書籍】[ Eirik Saethre ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Telling the story of a clinical trial testing an innovative gel designed to prevent women from contracting HIV, ＜em＞Negotiating Pharmaceutical Uncertainty＜/em＞ provides new insight into the complex and contradictory relationship between medical researchers and their subjects.

Built on a series of tales ranging from strategy sessions at the National Institutes of Health to witchcraft accusations against the trial, ＜em＞Negotiating Pharmaceutical Uncertainty＜/em＞ illuminates the everyday social lives of clinical trials.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As embedded anthropologists, Saethre and Stadler provide a unique and nuanced perspective of the reality of a clinical trial that is often hidden from view.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,652円 |
 The Performance of Gender An Anthropology of Everyday Life in a South Indian Fishing Village【電子書籍】[ Cecilia Busby ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The Performance of Gender presents a vivid description of everyday life in order to explore the concept of performance for an anthropology of gender. A detailed and evocotive account of the lives of men and women in a South Indian fishing community reveals new ways of framing gender relations, the body and kinship. The ethnographic account is set within the context of social and cultural theory, notably the ideas of Judith Butler, Pierre Bourdieu and Michel Foucault. The study sheds new light on the ways in which gender is understood as both performative, that is enacted through everyday practices, and also substantial and embodied, that is marked out in the separate sexual fluids and procreative capacities of husbands and wives.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 7,626円 |

 The Symbol of No Escape A South African Story【電子書籍】[ Tanya Robinson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞South Africa needs no introduction to the global narratives of violence and crimes against women and children. With reported sexual offences exceeding 60000 and incidents of murder totalling 17805 for the 2014/2015 period, our countrys notoriety in this arena contributes to the landscape within which The Symbol of No Escape plays out. As forensic thriller The Symbol of No Escape is an emergent property of qualities that not too many authors are able to harness. These include Dr Tanya Robinsons practical experience and extensive work with the abused child, her knowledge in forensic psychopathology and her laudable scholarly credentials that underpins each page with legitimacy whilst powerfully infusing the characters of protagonist Dr Claire and villain Dann Carmen. The reader is systematically drawn in and absorbed in the lifeworld of Dr Claire, a profiler and expert assessor who is tasked to create a profile that would help close the case against depraved child serial murderer and family killer, Dann Carmen. His crimes are brutal and bizarre, yet Dr Claires assertion that Dann instils no fear in me paves the way for explicating her goal which is to establish what contributed to him becoming a monster (Marcel Van der Watt, University of South Africa, Department of Police Practice).＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 468円 |

 Foundations of Islamic Governance A Southeast Asian Perspective【電子書籍】[ Maszlee Malik ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The aim of this book is to explore and analyze the Islamic axioms, foundation principles and values underpinning the field of governance in an attempt to construct the architectonics of a new systemic and dynamic theory and formulate the articulation of ‘Islamic governance’. This discursive and abstract, rather than being an empirical exercise, assumes to produce a ‘good governance’ framework within its own formulation through a value-shaped dynamic model according to maqasid al-Shari’ah (higher objective of Shari’ah) by going beyond the narrow remit of classical and contemporary discussions produced on the topic, which propose a certain institutional model of governance based on the classical juristic (fiqh) method. Through an exclusive analytical discursive approach in this book, readers will find that Islam as one of the major religions in the contemporary world with the claim of promising the underpinning principles and philosophical foundations of worldly affairs and institutions through a micro method of producing homoIslamicus could contribute towards development of societies by establishing a unique model of governance from its explicit ontological worldview through a directed descriptive epistemology.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 11,275円 |
