Reviews

“This book highlights the importance of the voluntary sector in recovery and maintenance of health for victims of war. It uncovers how, after years of austerity and a hostile environment, the needs of migrant populations have grown and must be addressed to ensure equity of service at both a national and local level.” Maria Wilby, Refugee, Asylum seeker & Migrant Action ""Bonner raises silenced voices of vulnerability, picking up on the vocations of those who have lived out their paradigm with skill and conviction. The naming of war as a consequence of evil helps us digest this read with hope while unpacking injustices and, by comparison, shapes justice in the way of compassionate determination.” Christine MacMillan, Salvation Army International Social Justice Commission and United Nations Multi-Faith Advisory Council
