Abstract (English)

"This book answers the need for a concise general history of photography which has a critical rather than a technical slant. What is important about certain photographs and photographers ? What are the criteria for evaluating photographs ? Why do certain pictures deserve our attention or merit preservation ? What is the particular nature of photographic vision ? How do we reconcile the nature of the photographic vision ?" -- p. [4] of cover.
