This monumental book surveys the development of postwar American photography, and isolates four major roles of the medium--artistic expression, journalistic documentation, commercial industry, and scientific tool. With extensive essays from a range of scholars, and work from Arbus, Frank, Lange, Friedlander, and many more, this book represents a major reference work of photo history. "All libraries should consider Photography's Multiple Roles."--Library Journal.
