'This thoroughly researched and eminently readable book is a must for anyone interested in the origin, meaning, or scope of genocide. Professor John Quigley, who served as an expert witness in the first-ever criminal prosecution charging genocide in Cambodia, provides a tour de force study of the Genocide Treaty, its application in various courts, and its deterrent value.' Professor Ved P. Nanda, University of Denver, USA 'With a masterful command of the authorities and the literature, in several languages, John Quigley weaves the complex fabric of the evolving law of genocide. What seemed simple only a decade ago is actually an unfolding story of great complexity, as Professor Quigley demonstrates so effectively.' Professor William A. Schabas, National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland
