More about the book
This book is a technical and craftsmen's history rather than another one of hundreds of books filled with artistic expressions and specific views of objects of all kinds. While the fascination with images is definitely the basis of men's efforts to reproduce what the eye sees and the brain interprets, this volume describes those efforts in terms of how to capture and preserve what we see. This brief history of photography takes a fresh look at the art and provides a short overview of the tools and instruments used by its practitioners, from the camera obscura to modern digital cameras.
