Reviews
'Phillips' account of persecution as a dynamic of genocide reaches into the histories Europe and North America exposing the ideological and religious roots of mass violence. The story is meticulously assembled as it portrays the populist political uses of persecution to eradicate the threatening Other. This history of persecution is a moral reckoning and warning.'
