Know about the book -

Transmitted Wounds is written by Amit Pinchevski and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0190625600 (ISBN 10) and 9780190625603 (ISBN 13).

Transmitted Wounds explores the ways media shape the social life of trauma both clinically and culturally. Through a series of case studies--from the radiocasts of the Eichmann trial to virtual reality therapy for PTSD--Pinchevski offers a bold thesis about the deep association of media and trauma: media bear witness to the human failure to bear witness, making the traumatic technologically transmissible and reproducible.
