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.
