"Beautifully written and compelling, this book digs deep into military doctrine to understand the place of aesthetic cultures within it. Fascinating and disturbing."—Lucy Suchman, author of Human-Machine Reconfigurations: Plans and Situated Actions
"A bold, ambitious, and expansive book."—Thomas Stubblefield, author of Drone Art: The Everywhere War as Medium
"Erudite yet wonderfully readable, Martial Aesthetics traces the tangled histories of war and art to offer new insights into the artful design and operation of violence in the modern age. "—Caren Kaplan, author of Aerial Aftermaths: Wartime from Above
