Review 'Penn has visited the places she describes, so she is able to give first-hand accounts...Penn concludes these shocking snapshots of an international disgrace with positive suggestions about what can be done...It is a powerful story well told.' -Ted Wragg, Times Educational Supplement'Penn...gives an insight into the practices of governments and international non-governmental organisations.
