Reviews

Review from previous edition ... a valuable overview of the law and practice governing remedies ... urges litigants to show greater attention to their requests for remedies - a task that will unquestionably be far more feasible with the publication of this book. .. the book is a valuable resource. Indeed, because of Shelton's comprehensive approach and her important, well-documented conclusions, the book will undoubtedly change the international discourse on the problem of providing remedies for human rights violations. The American Journal of International Law, Vol. 95, 2001 Review from previous edition this book will be of great interest to anyone, practitioners and academics alike, with an interest in human rights law. Helene Lambert, Int. & Comparative law Quarterly, Vol.49, Oct 2000.
