Recenzje

'This is a book for anyone daring to understand the complex story of slavery, historically and contemporarily. Whether we call the present condition modern slavery or human exploitation, the authors remind us that it is in our power to make slavery disappear. Read this book, but do not ignore it. Too much is at stake.' Earl Lewis, Thomas C. Holt Distinguished University Professor of History, University of Michigan
