Milton Shain.  aJohannesburg : b Jonathan Ball, c2006.  a x, 173 pagesbcolour illustrations:c23 cm  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.  aSummary: Reports that there seems to be little popular understanding of the nature of South African liberalism as it has developed since the nineteenth century and even less understanding of the role which liberals have played in paving the way for a relatively peaceful transition and the enactment of a democratic constitution. Maintains that this volume, compiled for a general as much as a scholarly readership, might help dispel the confusion which decades of political rhetoric have created. The book is published by Jonathan Ball, Cape Town and Pretoria.
