The Genocidal Mind offers unique and under-explored analyses of the Holocaust and the phenomenon of 20th century genocide within a sociological framework. With reference to contemporary scholarly work and using the latest in social structural, psychoanalytical, post-modern, chaos, and uncertainty theory, Dr. Porter attempts to explain why people dehumanize and kill other innocent people. The author also probes the deviant, sexual side of the Nazi party, including the mind of Adolf Hitler.

Jack Nusan Porter has been a sociologist and social activist for 40 years. Dr. Porter is a writer and editor and the former vice-president of the International Association of Genocide Scholars. He received his Ph.D. in Sociology from Northwestern University and is the recipient of the Distinguished Scholarly Career Award from the American Sociological Association Section on the History of Sociology in 2004.

The collected essays of Dr. Jack Nusan Porter reveal a life-long commitment to serious in-depth analysis of the Holocaust and are distinguished by a fertile and probing intellect. The breadth of his scholarly research is uncommon at a time of intense specialization, but Dr. Porter brings to bear in his approach both a broad overview and incisive study of material, some of which makes a singular contribution to the socio-historical material he has been exploring.
