King Distinguished Visitor Professor of Holocaust Studies, Richard Stockton College and Former Director of Research at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum - 'There are many scholars who are wont to criticize the teaching of the Holocaust.

Many journalists critique what they regard as kitsch or trendiness.

All critics of contemporary Holocaust education would do well to read this book.

One cannot fail to be impressed by the quality of its learning and the seriousness of its purpose.

It is a wonderful place for teachers to turn as they contemplate teaching the Holocaust, an open invitation to learn more and teach more effectively'.

Barry van Driel; Coordinator International Teacher Education, Anne Frank House, Amsterdam - '""Teaching and Studying the Holocaust"" is an invaluable resource for any teacher wanting to address the complex and sometimes overwhelming history of the Holocaust in the classroom.

The book offers a multitude of sensitive and responsible ways of dealing with the issue of the Holocaust.

It succeeds in showing teachers very clearly how the study of the Holocaust is not just a topic for history teachers, but for teachers across the curriculum'.

Dr. Nili Keren; Kibbutzim College of Education, Tel Aviv, Israel - 'Teaching about the Shoah is one of the most complicated tasks for educators.

Indeed, teaching and studying this history raises unprecedented questions concerning modern civilization, and presents teachers and students with tremendous challenges.

Samuel Totten and Stephen Feinberg have created a volume that provides educators with essential information and new insights regarding the teaching of this history, and, in doing so, they assist educators to face the aforementioned challenges head-on. ""Teaching and Studying the Holocaust"" does not make the task easier, but it does make it possible'.
