Seyfo: The Assyrian Genocide in International Law by Ninos Warda is a legal analysis of the awful events of 1915 in Ottoman Turkey. The book makes the case that the atrocities committed upon the Assyrians in 1915 Ottoman Turkey amount to the crime of genocide under international law and the United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide of 1948. The book is a brief but valuable introduction to this vital topic and will be important reading for both legal scholars and the general readership alike.
