The sixth volume in this high-impact series captures 2012 in over 330 powerful photos. The book is organized into four sections representing the four quarters of the year. The images cover
the full range of news reporting politics, commerce, conflict, accidents and disasters, the environment, faith and festivities, entertainment, celebrity and lifestyle. Succinct captions
summarize the story behind each image. Witness features in each chapter present powerful, in-depth photo-essays from around the world. An introduction explains in the photographers own words
the events and approaches that lead to spectacular photojournalism. These are accompanied by intriguing statistics set out to form a typographic feature that helps summarise the realities
behind the headline stories of the year. Like the previous Our World Now volumes, this is a book that consistently packs an emotional punch: spectacular, moving, hard-hitting, at times even
funny. This highly successful series has built to become an indispensable visual record of our times, with over 100,000 copies now sold worldwide.
