Recent developments in legal practice have highlighted the dynamic nature of the law of persons - discussion, litigation and resolution in court of issues such as domicile, surrogacy, the status of persons who have undergone operations altering their sex, the legal status of children's rights in general, have changed the face of the law of persons. The 1996 constitution, new legislation, ground-breaking court rulings and research done by the South African law reform commission have created the need for a textbook that addresses these changes. Furthermore, this publication fulfils the need for a separate textbook on the law of persons, since this particular field of study is presented as a separate course at several universities
