Photography, a handbook of history, materials, and processes Book

This book introduces students to the principles and processes of photography in such a way that they can soon begin to concentrate on the art of making images. The text is designed primarily for beginners of all ages in black-and-white photography, whether in academic or less formal situations, but many sections will also be useful for students at the intermediate level. Complex or advanced topics are clearly set apart by headings or in separate chapters; thus they can easily be located when they are needed.
