Reviews
"'A compelling read...if you are interested in the relationship between geographical imagination and photographic representation you will enjoy this historical journey through the practices and idea of both.' - Katrine Kjoeller, The Magazine of the Royal Geographical Society 'diverse perspectives on the subject' 'does an excellent job' 'a major contribution and should be read by everyone who uses images in teaching, research or publication.' - Area Journal; Landscape Research: ""Schwarz and Ryan have provided some excellent case studies and ideas for geographers to use."" 'An altogether wonderful set of reflections on the reciprocal relations between photographic impulses and geographical imaginings. 'Picturing Place' illuminates how place is pictured. But it does much more. It shows the central place of picturing in the making of geographical knowledge. No one interested in visual culture can afford to be without this outstanding collection of interdisciplinary essays ranging over five continents and fifteen decades.' - David N. Livingstone"
