Chasing Wrongs and Rights
The Australia Director at Human Rights Watch shares her experiences defending human rights - from human trafficking in Nepal to the 'drug war' in the Philippines to treatment of detainees in Papua New Guinea and in Australia - offering an extremely involving personal account of how far we've come, and how far we've got to go. Growing up in Perth, Elaine Pearson always dreamt of the wider world. Her British father and Singaporean-Chinese mother meant that her family extended beyond our shores, but it wasn't until later in life that she fully understood how her professional calling might have been influenced by personal history: she learned that her beloved maternal grandmother had been sold t...
Gender, Trafficking, and Slavery
This book examines the operations of trafficking and other kinds of 'modern-day' slavery, from a gender perspective.

Human Trafficking
Human trafficking captured the attention of the global community well over a decade ago, inspiring multifarious international, national, regional and local responses. While formally recognized as one of the major threats associated with transnational organized crime, human trafficking remains an issue about which much has been written and yet little is known or supported by empirical evidence. The essays selected for this volume reflect four key areas of debate: the transnational organized crime framework; the data and research landscape; the implementation of anti-trafficking responses; and the articulation of alternative responses to human trafficking. These essays are written by well-known and more recent contributors to this field of research. The collection draws attention to contemporary arguments as well as recent empirical research, and points to the importance of contextualizing human trafficking within both the global and local setting. This volume reflects where human trafficking data, research and debate is currently located and where it is heading, and as such is of interest to academics, students, policymakers and practitioners.

At the Gates of Heaven there is an Open Door leading to a Beulah Tabernacle
This is a non-fiction book about growing up in the church of Gates of Heaven Pentecostal Churches, Incorporated in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Gates of Heaven Pentecostal Church Incorporated ministry started in the 1950s and continues to thrive and grow. It was started by a group of young people and a minister by the name of Minister Lena Thomas. They faithfully stepped out of the boat and decided they could walk on water. At Jesus' command they took a leap of faith and as a result, many people have come to know Jesus Christ as their personal savior. Backsliders have restored their rightful place in Jesus' heart. Demons have been cast out. Lives have been permanently changed for the better. All things were not perfect; but where repentance, grace, mercy and love abide so does growth and surrender and the peace that passes all understanding and a life that is more abundant.
