It has never occured to Precious Ramotswe that there might be disadvantages to being the best-known lady detective in Botswana.But when she receives a threatening anonymous letter from someone who knows exactly where to find herMma Ramotswe is compelled to reconsider her unconquerable belief in a kind world and good neighbours.While she ponders the identity of the letter-writer Mma Ramotswe has a further set of problems to solveboth professional and personal.There is an adopted child's poignant search for her true familyand Mr J/L.B.

‎THE FULL CUPBOARD OF LIFE: More from the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency‎

‎New York New York U.S.A.: Pantheon Books 2004. 1st American edition so stated with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket not price clipped in protective mylar cover. Precious Ramotswe is on the case again in this delightful fifth installment in the bestselling No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series this time assisting the self-made founder of a chain of hairdressing salons who wants to unearth the real intentions of her four suitors each possibly more interested in her money than her heart. As fans know though sleuthing takes second place to folksy storytelling in McCall Smith's wry novels. This time around Mma Ramotswe is distracted by her long-prolonged engagement to Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni Gaborone's best mechanic; it seems she will never be married despite her fiancé's honorable intentions. He installs an extra large seatbelt in her car to keep her safe she is quite comfortable with her "traditional build" despite the new slender fashion of modern woman but an altercation with another mechanic and the prospect of a charity parachute jump keep his mind off matrimony. A drive for decency motivates Mma Ramotswe and her friends-among them Mma Potokwani the imperious matron of the local orphan farm and Mma Makutsi assistant at the Ladies' Detective Agency and founder of the Kalahari Typing School for Men-and Smith's talent is in portraying this moral code in a manner that is always engaging. As readers will appreciate Mma Ramotswe solves her cases-more questions of character really than of criminal behavior-in good time. Traditionally built ladies living in the African heat don't tend to hurry and at the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency there's always time for another cup of tea. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine.

‎THE SUNDAY PHILOSOPHY CLUB: An Isabel Dalhousie Mystery‎

‎New York New York U.S.A.: Pantheon Books 2004. 1st ed. A fine copy in dust jacket. First in a new series set in Edinburgh and featuring Isabel Dalhousie. By the author of the acclaimed "No 1 Ladies Detective Agency" series. "Murder and moral obligation mingle in this whimsical new series from the author of the smash hit The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency. McCall Smith's new heroine is Scottish-American philosopher Isabel Dalhousie a single woman of independent means who edits the esteemed Review of Applied Ethics and presides over the titular club. When Isabel witnesses fund manager Mark Fraser fall from a balcony after a performance at an Edinburgh concert hall she feels obliged to investigate the gentleman's demise. "I was the last person that young man saw" Dalhousie tells her beloved niece Cat. "The last person. And don't you think that the last person you see on this earth owes you something" Given her affinity for applied ethics questions of conscience are a daily concern for Isabel and the more she thinks about Fraser's fall the less accidental it seems. Among those who might have pushed him: his shifty roommate his colleague's scheming spouse and a disgruntled broker with a craving for cash. Fans of Botswanan heroine Precious Ramotswe are sure to embrace Scotsman McCall Smith's plucky new protagonist who leads a cast of delightfully quirky characters that includes Toby a dapper bachelor with a dubious understanding of fidelity and Grace Dalhousie's morally upright housekeeper who sizes up society's reprobates in two syllables or less. Scotland's climate may be misty and cool but McCall Smith's charming prose warms every page of this winning series debut." -- Publishers Weekly. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Book.

‎Women in Educational Policy-making. A Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis of the Situation in the E.U.‎

‎Leuven, Universitaire Pers, 1999 Paperback, English, original editor's jacket, 16x24 cm., 148 pp. ISBN 9789061869528.‎

‎Studia Paedagogica : 24. Enhancing the participation of women in high-level decision-making in several sectors of society has been on the agenda of national and international institutions for several years. These endeavours, however, are not always equally successful. In this book, the authors evaluate the participation of women in the field of educational policy-making in western Europe, both from a quantitative and a qualitative perspective. Over the last decennia, many countries have taken legal steps in order to eliminate structural obstacles to women's access to high level positions; nevertheless, women still take up only a small minority of these functions, which suggests that cultural factors are obstructing women's empowerment as much as juridical factors. Increasing the numbers of women as a purely quantitative approach to the problem is inadequate, because it leaves these cultural elements unchallenged. Therefore, in the first, theoretical part of this book, the authors address the question of the relationship between women's participation in politics and the question of social emancipation. Through a deconstruction of the different arguments for increasing women's participation in policy-making, the authors try to indicate in what sense or under what conditions women's participation in politics can address not only the problem of women's equal rights, but also that of engendering a less discriminative, more democratic and emancipatory politics. In the second part, they analyse on an empirical level the participation of women in educational policy-making in the member countries of the E.U. The aim thereby is to explore some general tendencies and to formulate hypotheses concerning interrelationships between some of the data. This part gives rise to a number of interesting questions for further research.‎
