A detailed survey of the most prominent cases of scandalising art
'Walker systematically and chronologically works through 39 case studies, starting in 1949 with Alfred Munnings and ending in 1998 with a sculptor guilty of stealing body partsThe accounts vary in depth and interest but all reveal some background in relation to the systematic manipulation of events by the media' -- The Art Book
