    “Book Descriptions: This rich and suggestive analysis of military “ways of seeing”
    reveals the convergence of perception and destruction in the parallel technologies of warfare and cinema.

    In this seminal work, Paul Virilio conducts a sweeping analysis of perception in an age of astounding visual impact. Through a technical history of weaponry, photography, and cinematography, an account of key war strategists and movie directors, and a narrative that places pin-up girls alongside satellite feeds and ranges from Hollywood to Hitler's bunker, Virilio shows how military “ways of seeing” have transformed the world as we know it.”
