Released in 1993, the original edition of Killing for Culture was a sensation, becoming as much a cultural bookmark as a cultural document. Two decades later it remains the seminal exploration of images of death and violence and the human obsession with looking at them. Since then, however, the world it surveyed has drastically changed, due in large part to the growth of the Internet. Along with many exclusive interviews, this new edition of Killing for Culture has been comprehensively revised and updated to reflect the upsurge of these disturbing yet compelling images.
