| Summary, etc. |
"The infamous Seriti Commission into the arms deal. The Glenister case following the disbanding of the Scorpions. Busting open the bread manufacturers' cartel. High drama; high stakes brought to South Africa courtesy of the Accountability Now NGO and its founder, Paul Hoffman. Join him in his journey from jaded silk to corruption buster - a fly-on-the-wall account of courtroom clashes, influential personalities, secrets and lies in the battle to speak truth to power. Confronting the Corrupt tells of Accountability Now's biggest battles, leading to landmark decisions in jurisprudence and earning its place in the small but determined group of organisations protecting and upholding the rule of law in SA."--Publisher description. |
