DescriptionAn authentic account of the experiences that have shaped the history of black nursing in the South African health service during the violent eras of colonialism and apartheid. Lahlekile is largely an oral history which reflects the South African nursing struggle across a hundred years as experienced by black health workers of all ethnicities. Trends in the period are provided at the end of three chapters while the fourth (and last), takes the reader to the cutting edge of the century. The term Lahlekile in Xhosa means 'lost' while in Zulu it has the connotation of being 'thrown away'. About the AuthorDoreen Foster was born in Western Cape, and now lives in East London.
