Ebook: Camouflage cultures : Beyond the art of disappearance

Growing interest in the connections between areas such as ecology, evolution, visual deception and warfare has taken the concept of camouflage beyond the politics of appearance, the art of disappearance or simple strategies of mimicry. Approaching this subject from the disciplines of art history and theory, art practice, biology, cultural theory, literature and philosophy, 'Camouflage cultures' greatly expands the reach of camouflage's cultural terrain and provides a new perspective on the developing discourse of camouflage and contributes to debates about the roles that physical, artistic and social camouflage play in life.
