- Hands the reader the tools to decode key photographs by the greatest photographers - An overview of the history of photography by looking at one image at a time - An introduction to photography as an art form for both novices and scholars - Each entry includes a concise biography along with an illuminating discussion of the works and short contextual information Understanding photographs has never been easy. Many photographs - including some of the best known - were not taken with a clear idea in mind. And even if they were, the idea was soon overlooked or forgotten.

Moholy-Nagy, among others. At the same time, readers explore an overview of the history of photography by looking at one image at a time. Each entry includes a concise biography along with an illuminating discussion of the works and relevant contextual information.
