The Tamil genocide by Sri Lanka : the global failure to protect Tamil rights under international law / by Francis A. Boyle.

"The book traces the ongoing engagement of international lawyer Francis A. Boyle during the last years of the conflict. Boyle was among the very few addressing international legal implications of the Sri Lankan Government's grave and systematic violations of Tamil human rights while the conflict was taking place. This is the first book to develop an authoritative case for genocide against the Government of Sri Lanka under international law."--P. [4] of cover.

Appendices include the author's article on aggression and genocide against the people and the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina and extracts of international conventions on human rights of civilians during times of war.
