An essential study for readers interested in modern warfare, policy makers, and historians of technology, war, and visual and military culture.


Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index. Commendation Quotes: A bold, complex, wonderfully written book with a revolutionary thesis: that technologies of seeing and the outlook of marines combine to form a 'projection of force' beyond the traditional meaning of the concept. Provocative and original. Commendation Quotes: An intriguing book that will spark productive discussions in the classroom and beyond. Pettegrew's compelling account draws shocking and persuasive connections between videogames, optical technologies, and institutionalized violence. Biographical Note: John Pettegrew, an associate professor of history and director of the American Studies Program at Lehigh University, is the author of "Brutes in Suits: Male Sensibility in America, 1890-1920."

Contributor Bio:  Pettegrew, John John Pettegrew is an associate professor of history and director of the American Studies Program at Lehigh University and coeditor of the three-volume Public Women, Public Words: A Documentary History of American Feminism.
