The book provides both insights on the concept of visual representation itself and the parallelisms with the human eye, and more specific disquisitions on the different parts of the camera and how the photographers’ choices condition the semantic result of the works they produce. Its agile writing makes it also an easy to digest reading that does not renounce, though, to deepen into more elaborate thoughts when necessary. By the end of the book, the reader will have obtained many answers, some more questions, and, more importantly, will have been empowered with more aware brains and eyes to face their world.
