Review


"This is undoubtedly the most thorough and up-to-date survey of the activities of the body which monitors compliance with the provisions of the Covenant by States parties, the Human Rights Committee....The book is thorough, and the author is to be commended for his efforts to research painstakingly the periodic reports submitted to the Committee."--International and Comparative Law Quarterly
