Review

"What is needed is nothing less than a new abolition movement, led by campaigners as determined as Douglass or Wilberforce. This timely and important book is its rallying call." The Times --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

Review

"What is needed is nothing less than a new abolition movement, led by campaigners as determined as Douglass or Wilberforce. This timely and important book is its rallying call." (The Times)

"A concise dismissal of the comforting myth that slavery is a thing of the past." (Aidan McQuade, Director of Slavery International)

"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." (John Stauffer, Harvard University professor of English and American Literature and African American Studies, award-winning author, and one of the world's leading scholars of antislavery movements)

"Modern Slavery is the most riveting exposé I've read in recent years and should forever redefine the phrase 'economic injustice'." (Barbara Ehrenreich, award-winning journalist and bestselling author)

“This book, a window into the world of slavery from ancient history to the modern era, shows the propensity of man to enrich himself by enslaving his brother and justify his actions in the name of gods.” (Jean-Robert Cadet, former child slave and author of Restavec: From Haitian Slave Child to Middle-Class American) --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

A wake up call.

Professor Kevin Bales provides a detailed insight into modern-day slavery, its causes, the methods used and the impact on lives. It is probably one of the most important books written, highlighting one of the least known criminal activities, yet one that almost everyone has unknowingly been party to, seen or benefited from. This book will open your eyes to what is going on around you.

Very Informative

Modern Slavery: A beginner's Guide is shockingly clear on what slavery is today. I used this book as well for a term paper I wrote specially on Modern Slavery. This book helped me to form the basis of the conditions of slavery as they exist today, in my paper. I highly recommend this book. It's truly eye-opening.
