ANNA ATKINS (1799-1871) | Photographs of British Algæ. Cyanotype Impressions., Robert Hunt's copy. The Photobook: A History Volume III | Photography | Phaidon Store. Following the success of volumes I and II of The Photobook: A History, this third volume brings the history of the photobook up to date, with specific exploration of postwar and contemporary examples. It covers key themes including the globalization of photographic culture, the personalization of photobooks, the self-publishing boom and the new 'layered' photobook approach.

While the history of photographs is a well-established canon, less critical attention has been directed at the phenomenon of the photobook, which for many photographers is perhaps the most significant vehicle for the display of their work and the communication of their vision to a mass audience. Volume III, co-edited by Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, expands this study and history of the photobook further. Make a Book – Choose your book-making tool | Blurb UK | Blurb Books UK.
