Paul R. Bartrop is Professor Emeritus at Florida Gulf Coast University, USA. He is the author and co-author of several books, including Resisting the Holocaust: Upstanders, Partisans, and Survivors (2016), Encountering Genocide: Personal Accounts from Victims, Perpetrators, and Witnesses (2014) and Genocide: The Basics (2014). He is also the co-editor, along with Samuel Totten, of The Genocide Studies Reader (2009) and the four-volume Modern Genocide: The Definitive Resource and Document Collection (2014; co-edited with Steven Leonard Jacobs).Professor Bartrop is currently Vice-President of the Midwest Jewish Studies Association, and is a Past President of the Australian Association of Jewish Studies.

The scholarship of Paul Bartop, one of the most prolific of Genocide and Holocaust scholars, never ceases to provide insight into often underexamined dimensions of the Holocaust. In The Holocaust and Australia, Bartrop continues that tradition by shifting his lens from Europe to Australia and powerfully succeeds in illustrating the ways in which the Nazi persecution of the Jews had worldwide implications and consequences. I highly recommend this book as an essential read for anyone interested understanding the ways in which the Holocaust was a global calamity the consequences of which continue to influence and haunt our world today.
