Reviews

0;Fallace's book is well researched, well argued, and well written. Anyone who either contemplates teaching about the Holocaust or is currently doing so owes it to him/herself to read this outstanding book as it addresses a host of critical and significant issues that should (indeed, must) be taken into consideration when taking on this complex period of history.1;--Samuel Totten, University of Arkansas, Fayetteville; Co-Editor of Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal <p><br>0;Fallace's book is fascinating and not only for those of us who are obsessed with Holocaust education. For anyone interested in how subject matter ends up in the curriculum, how history is represented, or how teachers constitute a political force, this book ought to be required reading. Nuanced and forthright, engaging and informative, Fallace's story is simultaneously easy reading and intellectual provocation. I can't recommend it highly enough.1;--Simone Schweber, Goodman Professor of Education and Jewish Studies, University of Wisconsin-Madison <br>
