Abstract

With the emergence of online distribution of photography, traditional modes of presentation, particularly the photographic
book, may seem to have become outmoded. With a virtually infinite stream of images constantly available, shouldn’t the
physical presentation of images in a printed format be obsolete? And yet photographic books continue to proliferate and to provide
an alternate mode of perceiving the images that cannot easily, or at all, be reproduced online or in any form of digital presentation.
