| Summary |
"Over 2,000 photographs of hands and faces in every conceivable pose or position. Male and female, old and young, the poses show faces in every aspect - in relation to actions such as eating, applying make-up, shouting, brushing teeth and taking a photograph, as well as depicting a gamut of emotions ranging from contentment to rage. Hands are shown from all angles in a diverse number of actions, such as opening a wine bottle, filing nails, pouring tea, ironing, sawing wood and playing the guitar, as well as in simple gestures from pointing a finger to shaking a clenched fist." -book jacket |
