Exposing war's untold violence against women.

"Our Bodies, Their Battlefield" brings to light the often overshadowed atrocity of sexual violence in war, an issue that has been both a consequence and a tool of conflict throughout history. Christina Lamb's extensive experience and deep empathy enable her to share harrowing, yet important stories of resilience and the pursuit of justice by women survivors. This isn't just an eye-opener; it's a call to acknowledge and act against the systemic use of rape as a weapon. If you're moved by human rights issues and untold stories of women's courage in the face of unimaginable adversity, this is an essential read.
