SIGNED & DATED, published by Macmillan, 2014, softcover, 225 pages, condition: very good.

At the time of South Africa's first democratic election in 1994 everyone agreed that poverty had to be uprooted, inequality reduced and the conditions for sustainable economic growth established. It was clear that the structure of the economy had to change and that land ownership, employment opportunities and access to essential services had to more closely match the needs of the entire population. Unfortunately, there was very little fundamental agreement about how this should be done. The Missing Pieces: Solving South Africa's Economic Puzzle looks at various aspects of our economy over the past 20 years in an accessible way - what has worked and what has fallen short - and looks into the next 20 years - what needs to be done in order to grow and sustain our economy - through focusing on the agricultural sector, redressing education policies and addressing our infrastructural backlog.
Kevin Lings, chief economist at Stanlib, has analysed the South African economy for 25 years. His reputation is one of pragmatism, honesty, passion and dedication to his work. This is evident in his writing.

The Missing Piece is a detailed source of economic information on South Africa's development since 1994. A refreshing break from the political grandstanding we see too much of in the daily press, this is factually based and gives an objective assessment of where we stand today. More importantly, he tackles how South Africa could improve further. His style is straightforward and non-accusing, emphasizing that there is a lot of good news, and that the shortcomings, given priority and commitment, can be made up.

This is an excellent resource for those studying business degrees. It should be required reading for those of us in business who advise, make decisions, or invest in South African businesses. I would place it on the desks of each person in government economic policy development - if only they would read it.
