| Summary |
"The World's Top Photographers: Photojournalism offers a showcase of the best in the field, as well as an impressive record of some of the current events that have changed the world. There are many single images that encapsulate an event. Often, though, the photojournalists, who go to dangerous lengths to capture the shot, remain under the radar. The latest in the series pays homage to the portfolios of 30 of the world's leading photojournalists, celebrating work that is by turns gritty, provocative, beautiful, instructive, and often shocking. From battlefields and civil unrest to documentary images of everyday life, this book brings together a collection of current events that have defined our times."--BOOK JACKET |
