One of the most highly regarded books of its kind, On Photography first appeared in 1977 and is described by its author as “a progress of essays about the meaning and career of photographs.” It begins with the famous “In Plato’s Cave” essay, then offers five other prose meditations on this topic, and concludes with a fascinating and far-reaching “Brief Anthology of Quotations.”
"A brilliant analysis of the profound changes photographic images have made in our way of looking at the world and at ourselves over the last 140 years."—Washington Post Book World
"Every page of On Photography raises important and exciting questions about its subject and raises them in the best way."—The New York Times Book Review
"On Photography is to my mind the most original and illuminating study of the subject."—Calvin Trillin, The New Yorker
