Review # 1 was written on 2019-10-15 00:00:00 Stephen Carr Dated book, but many of the concepts are still very applicable to both creative & technical aspects of photography, traditional and digital.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-05-29 00:00:00 Harry Gretzschel Very interesting and informative subject matter, but I didn't think it was particularly well organized or written. After many chapters with biological information about people who in the end refused to give him money for research, we are just going to gloss over his internment in a Nazi concentration camp in about 5 sentences? It was generally chronological, but had some weird jumps. For example, the section right at the end giving the personal history of his main biological mentor, who had been a main character for twenty years and the entire book. Despite some difficulties with the organization and dry writing style, it was heartbreaking to read about how Just struggled to pursue his life passion of biological research in an era where there were simply no research jobs for black Americans. It was worthwhile to read a book about this subject matter, and I'm guessing this might be the only one, so I'm glad I read it.
