Abstract:
Focusing on the government's nuclear waste burial program in Carlsbad, New Mexico, Signs of Danger begins the urgent work of finding a new way of thinking about ecological threat in our time. The reflections at the center of this book-on memory, trauma, disaster, representation, and the virtual-offer invaluable insights into the interface of where culture ends and nature begins.
