In this fascinating book Ian Jeffrey proposes a new and powerful history of photography. He presents an account which identifies both technical and aesthetic advances which have played a specific part in driving forward the photographic agenda, some hitherto ignored or even dismissed as trivial. Each advance is considered within the broadest social, scientific, aesthetic, even literary context, thereby demonstrating how photography and the 'unconscious' culture are inseparable.

This text asks the reader to think again about the accepted understanding of photographic history. It takes a broad sweep across photography, releasing it from categorizing ghettos of art or science. Jeffrey proposes a new history of the medium.'
