Extract

The Arabic version of Red Cross Principles has just been issued by the ICRC. This work, which first appeared in French in 1955 and has also been translated into English, German, Japanese and Spanish, is of fundamental importance and should, as Max Huber wrote in his preface to the French edition, be not only read but meditated upon. The author, Mr. Jean Pictet, is Vice-President of the ICRC, Director of the Henry Dunant Institute and Associate Professor at the University of Geneva.

They will then have no difficulty in discovering the road leading from the loftiest of principles, described in masterly fashion, to the more commonplace practical problems, which make up the daily life of the Red Cross, as well as to the new problems which the world, in a constant state of flux, may set us in the future.”
