About this title: In this international survey of photography, author Marien examines the art across the full range of its uses--in advertising, science, art and vernacular, and as a documentary medium. She shows how photography developed in different historical, cultural, political, and economic settings worldwide, and also how it has altered our perception of the world around us.

"Highly recommended for those interested in the history of photography, from the very first beginning to the digital age. The writer presented her book in a clear and easy to understand format. Tons of pictures included."
"Not a bad textbook, it's good because it has a lot of photo's in it and they are colored so that's nice and it's much easier to get an idea of what the author is saying when there is actually something to go on. It's quite easy to read as well and I didn't find that I had to re-read it a ton of times to understand what Marien was getting at which made it quite easy to study from as well. My only real problem with it was I found it jumped around far too much for my liking and I disliked the artist profiles that were randomly stuck in the text because you'd begin reading a sentence and then all of a sudden one of those would be there. Overall it's a good textbook. A bit too expensive though. I have issues paying $107 for something I'm gonna highlight in."
