He has written several books including The Psychology of Genocide (Cambridge University Press 2008), Antisemitism Explained (UPA 2012), and with co-editors Florette Cohen and Steven L.

Controversy

As chief editor of the Journal for the Study of Antisemitism, Baum became entangled in politics when the inaugural issue of the journal led to the temporary dismissal of board member Clemens Heni with several board members resigning for an article critical of ZfA—the Berlin Centre for Antisemitism Research. Heni was reinstated and several who resigned returned.[2]
