"While this volume will provide a robust synthesis for advanced
students and scholars, it is also an important resource for
students new to the topic. Includes an excellent chronology,
further reading list, and relevant Web sites for additional
information....Essential."--C. Pinto, CHOICE
" [T]he value of this broad perspective is in the compelling
connections he makes, and his drawing out of, as he described it,
the remarkable and frightening similarity in genocides throughout
recorded history....Genocide: A World History succeeds in Naimark's
aim of drawing out of that remarkable and frightening similarity in
the cases considered."--Ashley Kalagian BluntSydney Review of Books
