| Summary |
In the first comprehensive survey of the history and sociology of genocide, Frank Chalk and Kurt Jonassohn provide a new definition of genocide--one considerably broader than that contained in the United Nations Convention on Genocide--and present over two dozen examples of the one-sided mass slaughter of peoples, from Rome's final war with Carthage and the Mongol Conquests to the Holocaust, Bangladesh, and Cambodia.
