The Face of Genius!
A portrait of Charles Simkins, arguably the greatest South African economist and social scientist, not only of his generation, but of any generation. Banned, harassed and confined to the Pietermaritzburg magisterial districts by the Apartheid era governments, his work has spanned every major aspect of South Africa's political economy - from labour markets to unemployment, from education to corruption and rent-seeking - and has had a major, incalculable positive impact on public policy.
