How we can stop the world’s worst atrocities In this compelling overview, Adam Jones outlines the history and current extent of key crimes against humanity, and highlights the efforts of popular movements to suppress them.

Coherent and revealing, this book is essential for anyone interested in the well-being of humanity and its future.
