This is an important and sometimes unsettling work. It is a hard truth that victimology has all but neglected the most atrocious of crimes, and has yet to scratch the surface of paths to and limits of understanding genocide victimization. This book is therefore already valuable in highlighting this gap. But Yarin Eski and his contributors go well beyond mere gap-spotting. He has succeeded in bringing together an array of leading scholars, each bringing their A-game to the volume, asking many difficult questions, offering an initial glimpse of what the answers to them might be and much in the way of inspiration for further investigation.
