H.M. Bateman was the first truly modern British Cartoonist of the C20th. His dramatic and expressive drawings sizzled with intensity, he had the ability to "draw funnily". Known for The Man Who - a series which chronicled various social faux pas - he was an acute observer of British suburban life.
Ranging from analyses of Condoleeza Rice and Bush's other 'Cowgirls' to the Iraq war, this book pushes the boundaries of contemporary theory. It charts the militarist and masculinist configurations through discussions of the Afghan and Iraq wars, violations at Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib, the 2004 US Presidential election, and hurricane Katrina.
