The entries are brief, but the selection is wide in terms of geography, history and style, and one will find much pleasure in leafing through the pages of this delightful little book.Also included is a glossary of photographic terms and an international directory of museums and galleries which display photographs. No good index, but a delight nonetheless. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great starting point *by J***A on Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2009* I wanted to learn more about photography as an art and this book is proving to be my best friend. The 500 photographs included here cover the history of photography from the nineteenth century to the late twentieth century and represent a wide variety of photographic styles. The paper and printing is very good. The paragraph of text that accompanies each image is insightful and small enough not to distract from the image itself. Many of the images included are classics in their own right, but the best use of the this book is as a jumping off point from which to explore more of the work of the photographers represented. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, little deception. *by R***A on Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2011* If you take your time to read all the reviews, you might find this information on someone else's post. You dont even have to read all reviews, just look at the product's dimention on especifications... but if you didnt read it, like i didnt, its not necessary to guess you didnt read all reviews, so lucky you to be reading this one: *IT IS A POCKET BOOK* that said, it has many excelent pictures not much Ive seen like "experimental" pictures just a collection of good pictures, many BeW produced without sophisticated effects, no blurred or confusing pictures that will demand a lot on your will and patience. The best point is that it is a good resouce to look further elsewhere, the 2 thumbs down- the size- most of them are a bit smaller that standart postcard picture ( 30% ), phaidon should really make an efford to produce books ( like this and the art and architecture etc..) a bit bigger. Would it hurt to make it 50% bigger, the size of a regular book? The costumer would benefit soooooo much on seeing experience by this little change. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/1206960-the-photography-book](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/1206960-the-photography-book) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
