Description

Andrei Sakharov, Nobel Peace Prize winner and physicist, was a leading human rights activist in the Soviet Union, and one of the world s great thinkers. His principled messages contributed to the non-violent, revolutionary changes of 1989, and continue to influence work in favor of justice and human rights today. This book, containing selected human rights texts, is published as part of a series of initiatives highlighting how acutely relevant his ideas remain in our time. - from Amzon
