From skylarking at school to a professorship at the best university in Africa. It's all here in this collection of loosely related memoir-essays: all twists in the winding road the author travelled to become a female computer science professor at the University of cape Town. Born and schooled in the Netherlands, Ms Keet didn't stay home for long. Her winding road had a distinctly international flavour. She has worked and studied in Ireland and Italy, and briefly in Peru and Cuba, before finding her way back to South Africa. The author herself says of her essays: ' They offer a peek into a kitchen where underway is making of a woman into an academic scientist when the yeast has been gender-spiked against her chances of rising.'
This book addresses the challenges confronting most married couples. The author is convinced that marriage is fully hinged on the concepts of trust, honesty, sincerity, integrity, and credibility. He pays special attention to some of the views of other writers' who have tackled this thorny topic. This author believes that a grand principle of a good marriage consists in open self-disclosure between couples, and he concurs with views of others that marriages undergo three levels of self - manifestation: a superficial level, an exploratory level and a profound or intimate level. The author hopes that this book will become a compelling read for everyone who have voluntarily entered the twists and turns of a serious relationship.
