Human Rights and Statistics - Getting the Record Straight (Hardcover, illustrated edition)

Effective human rights advocacy and research require the use of statistics, carefully collected and objectively analyzed, using the best techniques available. The contributors to this book, including experts in political science, public health, law, forensic pathology and statistics, illustrate good statistical practice in the field of human rights and show the importance of collaboration between statisticians and other professionals. The treatment is largely non-mathematical, and the examples provide broad coverage of all features of the collection and use of statistical data on human rights violations. For readers who would like to do their own analyses, an extensive guide to human rights data sources is included.
