Theorizing Images by Žarko Paić and Krešimir Purgar (Eds.) [Book Review]

Theorizing Images is, in many places, an impressive synthesis of the highly interdisciplinary landscape of visual studies. Scholars needing a foundation in visual culture would benefit from this text, as would those needing to give voice to the oftenunnamed or poorly explored relationships among objects, time, language, and meaning-making.
