René Cassin and Human Rights. From the Great War to the Universal Declaration

Jay Winter and Antoine Prost

édition anglaise de René Cassin, chez Fayard en 2011.

Winter and Prost have written a marvelous book about the struggle for human rights as seen through the prism of the remarkable life and achievements of René Cassin ranging throughout the entire twentieth century. It is thoroughly researched, brilliantly presented, honest and humane in its treatment, and sound in its judgments. This is exactly the way that history and biography should be written. (Paul Gordon Lauren, University of Montana)
