In this book, art historians Lee and Foster offer an expertly chosen collection of these disparate texts, many of which appear in English for the first time...His writings are not only engaging but often highly illuminating. For instance, an homage to Andy Warhol offers great insight into Hirschhorn's provocative use of violent war imagery. VERDICT Highly recommended to readers interested in Hirschhorn's work or artist writings more generally. Library Journal
