It will leave no reader unmoved, and no conscience untroubled.' - Philip Pettit, L.S.Rockefeller University Professor of Politics and Human Values, Princeton University; Distinguished University Professor of Philosophy, Australian National University. Author of Just Freedom: A Moral Compass for a Complex World (Norton 2014).;'William Maley has done the world a great service - introducing one of the key questions of our times with rich insight and clarity.

I learnt a huge amount from his writing, and I highly recommend it.' - Patrick Kingsley, Migration Correspondent, The Guardian;'This is truly a book for its time ... It shows that now, more than ever, it is immoral to remain silent.' - Julian Burnside
