Book Synopsis After Dawn by : Mcebisi Jonas
Download or read book After Dawn written by Mcebisi Jonas. This book was released on 2019-08. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 2015, the Gupta brothers offered Mcebisi Jonas the position of minister of finance in exchange for R600 million. Then deputy minister of finance, Jonas turned down the bribe and a period of deep introspection followed for him. How did we reach this point, and what did the future hold for South Africa's democracy and the economy? In After Dawn, Mcebisi Jonas analyses the crisis at the heart of our current system, which places politics at the centre of policymaking and implementation at the expense of growth. In this important and authoritative book, Jonas first unpacks and analyses the current badlands of the South African economic and political landscape. In the second half, Jonas proposes a series of workable and practical solutions for transitioning South Africa into a growing, job-creating country including: Putting inclusive growth at the centre of economic policy; rapidly expanding new technological capacities and knowledge to transition to a twenty-first-century economy; expanding human capabilities at scale; path-changing trade-offs to catalyse the next phase of South Africa's development; nurturing a corruption-free, high-performance state built on meritocracy and innovation; and changing the nature of politics. Time is of the essence and the window of opportunity is narrowing for all South Africans to work together towards the South Africa we all imagined was possible in 1994.

Book Synopsis Ivy's Ever After by : Dawn Lairamore
Download or read book Ivy's Ever After written by Dawn Lairamore. This book was released on 2013-08-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who needs Prince Charming? Dragons are much better company. If her fairy godmother hadn't run off, if her father hadn't lost his mind, if her mother had lived—maybe Ivy would have been a proper princess. But as it is she has no time for dignified pursuits like needlework or harp lessons, when she could be roaming the wilds of the kingdom of Ardendale, playing with the servants' children, and reading old tales of glory. But there's one tradition Ivy can't escape: on her fourteenth birthday, she is to be imprisoned in a tower guarded by a fierce dragon, and the first valiant prince to come slay the beast will win her hand in marriage. Maybe she could resign herself to it—until she uncovers Prince Romil's wicked plan to murder her and her father, and turn their lush kingdom into the heart of his empire. Locked away, there's only one ally Ivy can turn to—the fierce, monstrous beast keeping her trapped in her tower. But it turns out the dragon Elridge is better at solving word puzzles than breathing fire. . . . and maybe this unconventional pair is exactly what the kingdom needs. Full of humor and high adventure—and plenty of slightly skewed fairy-tale motifs—this frothy fractured fairy tale is sure to delight young readers.

Book Synopsis Grievers by : adrienne maree brown
Download or read book Grievers written by adrienne maree brown. This book was released on 2021-09-07. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grievers is the story of a city so plagued by grief that it can no longer function. Dune’s mother is patient zero of a mysterious illness that stops people in their tracks—in mid-sentence, mid-action, mid-life—casting them into a nonresponsive state from which no one recovers. Dune must navigate poverty and the loss of her mother as Detroit’s hospitals, morgues, and graveyards begin to overflow. As the quarantined city slowly empties of life, she investigates what caused the plague, and what might end it, following in the footsteps of her late researcher father, who has a physical model of Detroit’s history and losses set up in their basement. She dusts it off and begins tracking the sick and dying, discovering patterns, finding comrades in curiosity, conspiracies for the fertile ground of the city, and the unexpected magic that emerges when the debt of grief is cleared.
