Photo Provocations: Thinking In, With, and About Photographs

In an alternating voice format, two interdisciplinary information scientists present photoessays exploring the personal, aesthetic, philosophical, word interface, and technical dimensions of still and video images. They challenge readers-viewers to reflect on the question of "if a picture is worth 1000 words, which 1000 words would they be?" The companion CD contains color renditions of the text's b&w images. O'Connor is at the University of North Texas, Denton; Wyatt teaches at Emporia State University, Kansas. Annotation 穢2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
