Reviews

This work is an important intervention, particularly in its illuminating of the vital contribution of artists, activists and other practitioners, to understandings of the interconnectedness and interdependence of war and media. The engaging and original case studies bring the subject matter alive. And the collection as a whole is a bold statement of how the conceptual lens of space makes us read warfare anew. * Andrew Hoskins, Interdisciplinary Research Professor in Global Security, University of Glasgow, UK *
