Softbound. Condition: VG. Glossy color pictorial wraps,158pp, 37 BW plates within the text. This is a fantastic book to be used as a reference for the evolution of computer technology in photography. From the birth of photojournalism and the rise of the picture press, beginning with seminal international periodicals like Vu and Life, to the sci-fi setting of MIT's Media Lab and the possibility of a "hyper-photography" that would capture our dreams and thoughts, Fred Ritchin's In Our Own Image is a classic account of technology's impact on what we see, and, ultimately, what we believe, about the world.
