Book excerpt: "The law of persons is a dynamic area of the law, and it is this dynamic nature that generates interest in this subject and makes it stimulating to teach and learn. Law of Persons seeks to make this subject area accessible to students, including first-year students. In the law of persons, the common law and legislation have been harmonised with the spirit, purport and objects of the Bill of Rights, while the values entrenched in the Constitution are permeating every area of the law. The greatest change in our law of persons to date has been the Children's Act 38 of 2005: it had redefined basic concepts, it has revolutionised the parent-child relationship, it has ended the labelling of children in terms of their parents' marital status and it has radically altered the legal status of unmarried fathers. Law of Persons is also available in Afrikaans, and should ideally be used in conjunction with Personeregbronnebundel / Law of Persons Sourcebook"--Provided by publisher.
