Visual Sociology" . . . a comprehensive study which is both readable . . . and insightful, and which will interest any who utilize photography or anthropology as research tools." —
The Midwest Book Review" . . . directed at professional and student anthropologists, the book would be just as valuable to most social scientists. After reading this book it is unlikely that anyone would ever take a picture —or look at one— in the same way again. Highly recommended." —
