Like water on stone : the story of Amnesty International by
Jonathan Power(
Book
)
5 editions published between 2001 and 2002 in English and held by 818 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Forty years on, Amnesty continues to question orthodoxies - even liberal ones. It has also radically reassessed its objectives. The struggle to free political prisoners goes on, but Amnesty also recognizes the need to fight for human rights in whatever form they are denied or abused. Its successes are often no more dramatic than the constant dripping of water on stone. But as Jonathan Power asserts, 'Amnesty may not yet have changed the world, but it has not left it as it found it either'."--Cover

Letters to a prisoner by
Jacques Goldstyn(
Book
)
1 edition published in 2017 in English and held by 372 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Told entirely through illustrations, Letters to a Prisoner is a wordless story about the power of hope and the written word. Inspired by Amnesty International's letter-writing campaigns to help free people who have been jailed for expressing their opinion, the book tells the story of a man who is arrested during a peaceful protest. In solitary confinement, he begins to despair--until a bird delivers a letter of support written by somebody outside the prison. Every day more missives arrive until the prisoner escapes his fate on wings made of letters. Simple illustrations convey plenty of rich symbolism to provoke thought and discussion. A letter from the author provides more information about Amnesty International's Write for Rights campaign."--

Nicholas Bamforth(
Book
)
3 editions published in 2005 in English and held by 308 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"These essays, based on the 2002 Oxford Amnesty Lectures, are united in their belief that it is a serious human rights violation unjustly to penalize people because of their sex or sexual orientation. However, they adopt a wide variety of approaches to their subject-matter, and tackle the questions raised in very different ways. In consequence, they make important contributions to academic and practical debates about human rights, gender, and sexuality."--Jacket
