They have stalked the horizons of our culture, wreaked havoc on
moribund concepts of dead and not dead, threatened our sense of
identity, and endangered our personal safety. Now zombies have
emerged from the lurking shadows of society s fringes to wander the
sacred halls of the academy, feasting on tender minds and hurling
rot across our intellectual landscape. It is time to unite in
common cause, to shore up defenses, firm up critical and analytical
resources, and fortify crumbling lines of inquiry. Responding to
this call, Brain Workers from the Zombie Research Center poke and
prod the rotting corpus of zombie culture trying to make sense of
cult classics and the unstoppable growth of new and even more
disturbing work. They exhume "zombie theory" and decaying
historical documents from America, Europe, and the Caribbean in
order to unearth the zombie world and arm readers with the brain
tools necessary for everyday survival. Readers will see that zombie
culture today "lives" in shapes as mutable as a zombie horde and is
often just as violent."
