THE EDGE books tell the inspiring story of South Africa's scientific,
technological and engineering achievements from the beginning of the
last century to date.

An award-winning journalist, leading photographers and a renowned
designer have teamed up with two of South Africa's leading technology
management experts

to reveal the evolution of the country's exciting innovations, at every
level from the grassroots to high technology.  Drawing on the annual
Technology Top 100 awards,

and published by the Engineering Association (SAVI) supported by
sponsors in government and the private sector, the series comprises two
illustrated volumes on past

and present achievements, plus a booklet on how innovation occurs in
go-ahead organisations.

 

The dynamism of democratic South Africa has its roots in the traditions
of the past and embraces the information technologies of the global era.
Golden jewellery

was crafted and traded from Mapungubwe on the Limpopo a millennium ago.
The first African in space and the first pilot to fly a private
spacecraft beyond Earth's

atmosphere were both South Africans.  The country boasts 10 Nobel Prize
winners, four of them in scientific fields.  The Edge books reveal how
the silent revolution

in technology occurred in a country that has triumphantly surmounted
racial divisions to create innovation from diversity.
