Finally gazetted in February 2007, the BEE Codes of Good Practice form the basis of the BEE scorecard system and will affect every organisation in South Africa. Yet whether readers are in government, run a family business or manage a multinational, these Codes are often quite technical and difficult to interpret. With a foreword by Cyril Ramaphosa.
Guinness World Records (2007) This best-selling book needs no introduction. Published this autumn, Guinness World Records 2007 enlivens the world of record breaking with thousands of ALL-NEW records, fantastic new features and 100% new photos.
