Is it art? `The book provides in two short appendixes, practical advice on writing about photographs and on conducting casual and directed discussion of photographs` Monterey Peninsula College, Anne Canright Rating: - An excellent book with wider appeal than might be expectedTeachers of art and design, specialists in the fields of media studies, cross-cultural education, social anthropology, and literary criticism will find fertile ground here for both personal study and teaching`It is documented with extracts from critical writings, biographical details of trends and movements in the history of photography, anecdotes about individual photographers, and a telling section of visuals, most of which are commented on in length`This is no dry academic exercise; here is a probing exploration of the links between theory and practice in the aesthetics of criticism`Journal of Art and Design Education, Michael Rawding  Try searching the Internet for "Criticizing Photographs: An Introduction to Understanding Images" or Ebay for "Criticizing Photographs: An Introduction to Understanding Images".
