Genocide in Modern Times
One would think that after the disgraceful, horrific holocaust, genocide would not be allowed, practiced, or overlooked by any government or group, yet we have holocausts in our world today. Ethnic cleansing is still a concept that drives murder and subjugation. The politics behind global peace somehow complicate the sensible conclusion that no holocaust should ever exist again. This piercing series takes an honest look at the important genocidal conflicts that have marred history since World War I to present day. Each book provides a balanced and accessible narrative about the root causes, victims, perpetrators, and the politics of response by the world community.

Book Review: The Holocaust"The story of how the Holocaust came to be is told in a dispassionate tone that imitates the steady path that led to such cruelty...Books such as this hope to answer questions about the Holocaust, but they also expose how easy it is to forget..RECOMMENDED."
