Reviews
'Comprehensive and provocative, Digital Snaps measures the shift in the photograph's status from a static documentary record of a past moment to a ubiquitous mode of immediate communication that allows us to perform versions of ourselves for a vast new public. If you want to understand photography today, you must read this book.' Geoffrey Batchen, Professor of Art History, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand
