Hardback, [PU: Taylor & Francis Ltd], Genocide: A Comprehensive Introduction is the most wide-ranging textbook on genocide yet published. The book is designed as a text for upper-undergraduate and graduate students, as well as a primer for non-specialists and general readers interested in learning about one of humanity's enduring blights. The third edition will follow relatively closely the template established by the successful first two editions. Instructors who use the volume from year to year will not be required to adjust to extensive structural transformations.

A wide range of such alterations have been made, but the core chapter structure remains identical with the first two., Genocide & Ethnic Cleansing<
