REVIEWS
The relationship between security policy and popular and public culture has changed dramatically over the last ten years, a change that calls out for probing critical attention. This timely collection pointedly responds to the need for genuine interdisciplinary engagement with such current issues. Its essays are excitingly original and sophisticated, providing analyses long overdue.
