John Berger's writings on photography are some of the most original of the twentieth century. This selection contains many groundbreaking essays and previously uncollected pieces written for exhibitions and catalogues in which Berger probes the work of photographers such as Henri Cartier-Bresson and W. Eugene Smith - and the lives of those photographed - with fierce engagement, intensity and tenderness.

The selection is made and introduced by Geoff Dyer, author of the award-winning The Ongoing Moment.

How do we see the world around us? This is one of a number of pivotal works by creative thinkers whose writings on art, design and the media have changed our vision for ever.

（主要是一些与主题关系不紧密的胡思乱想） 近期一直苦恼于厌恶自己无处不在的理性主义，约翰·伯格给了我一种答案：用感性去触碰，去观察，去体会，以此来带动理性，去理解。这和我不久前得出的一个想法不谋而合：去认识一个人，不要去分析她/他。这本论摄影的著作集，有些篇...  

（短评超字数了） 必须随时放弃学习的想法，看作者漫天吹彩虹屁、为绝妙的比喻和联想自我陶醉其实乱好笑的。（如果你不笑你就得吐。） 虽然数篇文章并在一起造就最大的问题就是赘述，前后内核交叠甚至矛盾，但总体非常流畅，文笔优美！从一个点快速挪到下一个点，提供的是个人...

在意时间与情景，样貌与行动。

太难读

很喜欢他在讲述自己理论时那种娓娓道来的笔力。最难的那几篇反而看得最认真。到了给别人作序时，老先生往往旁征博引，刹不住脚，有些越俎代庖之意。
