Summary:"A collection of eighteen essays by Friedrich Kittler (many previously untranslated and several unpublished texts) written over three decades, on the close connections between war and media technology. Notwithstanding the wealth of Kittler translations, edited collections and special issues released so far, Operation Valhalla is the first volume of its kind-containing only essays that specifically address the question of war: its hardware, media, historical mutations and discursive mobilizations - from Prussia's wars against Napoleon, via the two World Wars and up to the (so-called) War on Terror"
