520			_a"Human rights scholars tend to focus on particular rights which spark their interest. My research some 20 years ago on freedom of thought, conscience and religion was launched by some unplanned engagement in advocacy and trial observation in the Cold War era. A recurring challenge since has been to grapple with international human rights law across a broad spectrum, a task made all the more confronting by the sheer scale and almost fractal complexity of the network of declarations, conventions and other instruments which the subject encompasses. This work spans all rights to be guaranteed under International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, one of the centrepiece conventions within the UN human rights system. It describes how the constituent elements of the Covenant integrate within a composite scheme of rights protection, across the full suite of civil and political rights. It is written at a time when the UN is under extreme financial and other pressure. Proposals are occasionally made for reform of the UN human rights system, including the Covenant. This book, finally, aims to present the Covenant with its imperfections, as well as its obvious and less well conspicuous advantages, so that its merits at least are not unduly sacrificed in reform proposals"--
