Description:


At this transitional moment in the field of photography, how should we consider what is to come for the medium? Can its past and present practitioners help guide us, both as creators and as observers? David Levi Strauss--eminent author, critic and teacher--rises to the challenge of these questions and more in "Words Not Spent Today Buy Smaller Images Tomorrow: Essays on the Present and Future of Photography." In the course of 25 essays, some of which appear for the first time in this volume, Strauss discusses the work of artists who provoke us with revealing, clear-eyed investigations of the ostensibly patent world in front of us, and others who transport us to new realms, poetic and unreal--creative minds ranging from Frederick Sommer, Helen Levitt, Daido Moriyama and Joseph Beuys to contemporary photographers Sally Mann, James Nachtwey, Susan Meiselas, Tim Davis and many others. Also considered are the groundbreaking theoretical writings of Susan Sontag and Jean-Luc Nancy, the films of Chris Marker and Stan Brakhage, and issues and events that have irrevocably altered the way we consider the medium of photography and how it communicates: 9/11, Abu Ghraib, the death of Osama bin Laden, the Arab Spring and Occupy Wall Street. Published in the "Aperture Ideas" series, "Words Not Spent Today" is an incisive exploration of photography's changing role as a tool of evidence and conscience as we move forward into--can we say it?--a post-photographic era.David Levi Strauss is the author of "From Head to Hand: Art and the Manual" (2010); "Between the Eyes: Essays on Photography and Politics," with an introduction by John Berger (2003);

A great way to start makes adding more a breeze.
Format: Board book
As soon as words you want to teach gain clarity, sentences will follow faster. The little “sponge”takes communication seriously. Add a motion to the word and it will be remembered longer, and used in 3-word sentences, etc. the first 100 words will double then triple surprisingly fast.

Necessary book for little ones!
Format: Board book
Great baby gift. My grown children loved Richard Scarry books. My daughter asked for this as a baby shower gift. Her son I'm sure will love it as much as she did.

Fun and Sturdy Book!
Format: Board book
We had the paperback form of this book first. The paperback form tore so easily and did not last due to how much our daughter loved it. We ordered this board book version and it has lasted us way longer than the paperback. It also has tons of every day words within the book. Our daughter loves the pictures and asking what the word is. Her vocabulary has definitely improved significantly from reading this book over and over again.

Cute animals and chunky flaps
Format: Board book
One of my littlest grandkids’ favorites and I don’t have to worry about them ripping off the flaps with these chunky style books.
