Editorial Reviews Review
""It is obvious from the book's very precision, its compact yet evocative statements, that Shore has spent years thinking through what he discusses in the book... In my roughly twenty years of writing about photography, I don't think I've come across a book that has implied so much with so few words, a book that raises so many important questions with so little fanfare and with such precision. Shore's humility is always evident, as is his fascination with things photographic, as are his credentials as a photographer. Given all this, it makes sense to listen carefully to what he has to say in The Nature of Photographs."--James Kaufmann, Photographer's Forum Review
""Shore's text is written so clearly and the ideas presented so aptly through the photographs of the major photographers he has selected for reproduction that students, artists, and arts advocates will benefit from it as both an artist's book and as a primary tool for critical analysis and understanding of photography in general."--James L. Enyeart, College of Santa Fe and former director, George Eastman House The Nature of Photographs
