During late-2006 and early-2007, several members of the JGB list at Yahoo Groups took part in a discussion of J. G. Ballard's book "The Atrocity Exhibition". Those discussions have now been collated into a series of web pages.

The discussions centered on each of the nine main chapters of "The Atrocity Exhibition", taken in the order in which Ballard wrote them. Names of those posting comments have been abbreviated as follows:
