Reviews
“The path breaking trans-disciplinary academic study of memory introduces how the dual forces of digitization and globalization might transform gender and gendered memories through and with mobile and social technologies. Anna Reading`s timely account of how mediated memories produced and recorded by mobile phone, social media, medical imaging, the internet and digital archive are rearticulating gender and the gendering of memory in previously unexplored new ways.” (Andrea Pető, Professor, Central European University, Budapest)
