"""With an interdisciplinary focus and with constant attention to environmental themes ... Through Post-Atomic Eyes bring[s] art history into dialogue with the emerging field of the energy humanities."" RACAR"


Through Post-Atomic Eyes presents a critical engagement with the visuality of the atomic in the twenty-first century, post-Cold War and after Fukushima. This book crucially deals with the atomic in terms of the interdependency and interrelationships between nuclear weapons and nuclear energy, which are often overlooked, as well as positioning the nuclear in relation to other global risks and threats. Ele Carpenter, Goldsmiths, University of London Through Post-Atomic Eyes is clearly a significant contribution to discourses on nuclear cultures, particularly from a Canadian and North American perspective. Whilst the collection is very diverse in scope, the conceit to consider specifically the role of the photographic in relation to the concept of the post-atomic is particularly valued. Robert Williams, University of Cumbria and co-author of Cumbrian Alchemy


With an interdisciplinary focus and with constant attention to environmental themes ... Through Post-Atomic Eyes bring[s] art history into dialogue with the emerging field of the energy humanities. RACAR
