Product Description

From tabloid headlines to scientific discoveries to investigative documentaries, the claim that truth is being revealed is commonplace today.Such attention-grabbing claims can conjure allure, sell products, launch careers, cement authority and much more besides. And yet, despite the familiarity of revelation-talk, this notion has been subject to limited academic theorizing to date outside of matters divine.Revelations sets out to examine how the making available through revealing is accomplished as well as the implications of revealing.In other words, it is concerned with how revelations are realized and what is realized through them.Central to the argument will be treating attempts to make available as processes that can entail mix – that is, as processes that combine treating truth as publicly demonstrable but also as beyond simple verification, as alternately intelligible but also as unknowable. In taking the pervasive appeal to revealing as its topic, and through drawing inspiration from a range of disciplines, this book should appeal to a variety of audiences, including those interested in secrecy, conspiracy, expertise, celebrity, science and technology.
