Review # 1 was written on 2017-08-07 00:00:00 Maria Tkvavilashvili This is an update to the original edition, with major movement in the use of DNA to identify the bodies of three of the women, and the process made to identify more than a hundred of the stolen children, as well as the fissure in the group between those in the founding line who wish to concentrate on demanding information from the government and punishment for the perpetrators of the Dirty War, and the faction asking for changes to the government and evolution of the group into a more radical international organization.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-04-22 00:00:00 Pedro All During the Dirty War in Argentina, perhaps 30,000 people were "disappeared" by the repressive right-wing military junta. The mothers of the disappeared refused to go away quietly. Their search for answers turned into one of the best known/imitated grass roots movements for truth in modern history. This book looks at some of the individual mothers and what kept them fighting against all odds.
