The new edition of Amnesty International's anti-torture manual appeared last year in a discreet way. So discreet that, being an international reference text, very few people seem to know about it. This is probably partly due to the contemporary trend to only publish texts and reports in an electronic format. In an environment of electronic saturation, documents can be ephemeral and the benefit of these kinds of general - purpose manuals are diluted. But, be sure, the Amnesty International handbook is a manual to have on the shelf, to consult and underline.Downloads
