Photographic Theory

“A canonical volume long overdue, smartly constructed, comprehensive and up-to-date, Hershberger's introductory commentaries are thoughtful, and insightful.  Readers uninitiated and scholarly alike will find much to appreciate.  Highly recommended!” – Fredrik Marsh, Guggenheim Fellow

“Hershberger brings the theoretical lineage of photography together in a delightful chronology from early notions of the image to today’s digital revolution. It constructs a historical framework for the novice, and provides titillating insights for the cognoscenti.”  - Robert Ladislas Derr, The Ohio State University
