—Eliot Higgins, Founder and Creative Director of Bellingcat
“Extraordinarily compelling and engaging.”
—International Journal of Communication
“Exposing Violence is a thorough account of recent interdisciplinary research that sustains legal cases against violence, whether against human beings or the natural world.”
