Items related to The Engine of Visualization: Thinking through Photography
In the first philosophical book wholly about photography, Patrick Maynard dispels some basic, persistent confusions by treating photography as a technology―a way to enhance and filter human power. Once photography is understood as a kind of technology, Maynard argues, insights about technology may be applied to provide the general perspective on photography that has been missing.

Patrick Maynard is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Western Ontario. He is the author of Drawing Distinctions: The Varieties of Graphic Expression, also from Cornell.
"The Engine of Visualization: Thinking Through Photography by Patrick Maynard makes an original contribution to the ongoing conversation about photography by calling attention to the unexpected forms into which the 'technology' of photography has been evolving."
(The Art Book)"Philosopher Patrick Maynard makes a provocative case for revising commonly held definitions of photography."
