This book tells you a lot about speed reading and photography. You are in the privileged position from which you can continue to increase your reading speed while maintaining the same rate of comprehension of the text. The course is complex, but you can choose exactly those techniques that suit you best. All of these techniques can be reduced to two or three main techniques that you have seen work for you and those you can keep exploring and, why not, improving. Speed reading can be condensed into a single sentence, but that doesn't change the facts of the matter. If I want to go to the gym because I want to have a worked body and the trainer shows me the exercises I need to do in a session, that doesn't automatically mean I'll look good. It's one thing to learn technique in a few minutes and another to exercise every day. You need willpower, discipline and determination to repeat the basic exercises daily. Without constant effort you cannot achieve results. If you go to the gym three times a week then you start to form a habit, and this habit helps you to live in the culture of sport. Being connected to the information in that sport and being able to generate so much enthusiasm that it counteracts your desire to give up the fight and return to your comfort zone. That's why I wrote about speed reading, to start living in the culture of this wonderful field. You have speed reading on your side. With it, you can get to break the 1000 words per minute barrier. That means you'll be able to read four times faster than the average person with the same or even better comprehension of the text.

Looking beyond the impact photographs have on the perpetuation and expression of social norms and stereotypes, and the influence of the act of taking a photograph, this new collection brings together international scholars to examine the camera itself as an actor. Bringing the camera back into view, this volume furthers our understanding of how, and in what ways, imaging technology shapes us, our lives, and the representations out of which we fashion knowledge, base our judgments and ultimately act. Through a broad range of case studies, the authors in this collection make the convincing claim that the camera is much more than a mechanical device brought to life by the photographer. This book will be of interest to scholars in photography, visual culture, anthropology and the history of photography.

This new edition of The Photographic Image in Digital Culture explores the condition of photography after some 20 years of remediation and transformation by digital technology. Through ten especially commissioned essays, by some of the leading scholars in the field of contemporary photography studies, a range of key topics are discussed including: the meaning of software in the production of photograph; the nature of networked photographs; the screen as the site of photographic display; the simulation of photography in the videogame; photography, ubiquitous computing and technologies of ambient intelligence; developments in vernacular photography and social media; the photograph and the digital archive; the curation and exhibition of the networked photograph; the dominance of the image bank in commercial and advertising photography; the complexities of citizen photojournalism. A recurring theme addressed throughout is the nature of ‘photography after photography’ and the paradoxical nature of the medium in the 21st century; a time when the traditional technology of photography has become defunct while there is more ‘photography’ than ever. This is an ideal book for students studying photography and digital media.
