Review
This wide ranging, thoughtful collection provides a state-of-the-art introduction to the key debates on human rights. The chapters are deep yet accessible, and overall convey a strong sense of stakes and implications alongside the principles and institutions. ― Alison Brysk, University of California, Santa Barbara
The main features that set this textbook apart are the breadth of its coverage and its connection to the current human rights literature. No comparable textbook is better designed for students. ― Chad Clay, University of Georgia
Review from previous edition The main features that set this textbook apart are the breadth of its coverage and its connection to the current human rights literature. There just isn't a comparable textbook that is better designed for undergraduates. ― Chad Clay, University of Georgia, USA
The best comprehensive text I have found for an introductory human rights course. ― Jeff Bachmann, The American University, USA
