In this issue International Review of the Red Cross commences the publication of a recent work, entitled “The International Committee of the Red Cross”, by André Durand, former ICRC delegate-general and author of a history of the ICRC.
The original version, in French, was first published by the Centre de Recherches européennes, attached to Lausanne University, under the direction of Professor Henri Rieben.
The full version of the book will be printed in the International Review and we extend our warmest thanks to the author and the director of the Centre de Recherches européennes for having kindly given permission to reproduce the book in the Review.
In the English and Spanish editions of International Review the text has been translated by the staff of the ICRC translation service.
