"Modern Slavery is the most riveting expos
"This is a book to make a reader's blood boil--and, I hope, to move him or her to action."
"A dazzling work of scholarship and protest, a clarion call that will, like the abolitionist literature of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, awaken people to the dehumanizing effects of global capitalism. Bales, Trodd, and Williamson are leading the way in the effort to end modern slavery."
