Industry Reviews "[C]ultural critic Dyer now turns his intelligent and discriminating eye to photography....In an overcrowded field, Dyer's book is distinguished by an idiosyncratic and infectious enthusiasm." Publishers Weekly (08/15/2005)
"[A] curious encyclopedia, purposefully eclectic and incomplete. The images are taken mostly from the canon of American twentieth-century photography, but Dyer arranges them in unexpected clusters--blind accordionists here, vacant benches there." New Yorker (11/21/2005)
