Since the second half of the nineteenth century, photography has played a fundamental role in opening the world's eyes to the horrors of war. During the same period, the ICRC has worked to alleviate the suffering of victims of armed conflict around the world. In a new book, Humanity in War, the ICRC traces the history of war and its humanitarian consequences from the American Civil War to modern-day conflicts with striking images that bring to life the pain and anguish of men, women and children who endured the hardships of war.

This photo book reflects the evolution of international humanitarian law and the role of visual images in humanitarian action. This collection of emotive images make this book a quality and valuable gift.

This double DVD production makes available for the first time rare footage of humanitarian work taken between 1920 and 1923. Shot amid the ruins of Germany and the Austro- Hungarian and Ottaman empires, these ICRC films document the attempts made by the ICRC to alleviate the suffering that followed the First World War.
