Reviews

Morsink, the leading international authority on the drafting of the Universal Declaration, has produced a fine companion to his authoritative book, The Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Origins, Drafting and Intention. The article-by-article coverage provides penetrating and often novel insights into the most important document in the global human rights regime, presented in lively prose and with an eye to the contemporary significance of this historic document. -Jack Donnelly, author of International Human Rights and Universal Human Rights in Theory and Practice
