Condition: FINE. First printing. A look at the science and psychology behind fear-based politics: "Why is an unarmed young black woman who knocks on a stranger's front door to ask for help after her car breaks down perceived to be so threatening that he shoots her dead? Why do we fear infrequent acts of terrorism more far more common acts of violence? Why does a disease like Ebola, which killed only a handful of Americans, provoke panic, whereas the flu--which kills tens of thousands each year--is dismissed with a yawn? . . a journey through a divided nation, where everything from immigration to disease, gun control to health care has become fodder for fearmongers and conspiracists, . . . exposing deeply ingrained strains of racism, classism, and xenophobia within our culture, as well as our growing susceptibility to the toxic messages of demagogues."

From the publisher: "21st Editions brings together two distinct bodies of work from one of the most fascinating photographers we have ever published. In Crowd, Misha Gordin¿s variations on the theme are at once subtle and yet universally appealing. Quietly powerful, graphically dynamic, Gordin¿s silent figures compel the mind to explore not only the viewer¿s own meanings, but those of humanity writ large. Gordin¿s Shadows of the Dream photographs open onto new worlds of depth and meaning. Enigmatic, highly charged landscapes provide doors and windows into the psyche, welcoming endless opportunities for personal interpretation through these meticulously crafted original silver gelatin photographs.".
