There are easily a dozen pictures in the portfolio that are destined (or should be destined) for ths history books and would easily rank among the best B+W images produced since WWII (especially the cover photo). For photgraphers, this book is an inspirational treatise on the use of available light photography. For physicians, it is a moving observational work on the joys of medicine. At the LUG price, it's a bargain.>> I received my copy last night. It is all the above and more. The photographers supplement alone is worth the price of admission. It is an exposition on the value of available light, the decisive moment, and the importance of watching your subjects eyes. If anyone is considering buying Ted's book, I would urge them to do so immediately. You won't be sorry. It truly is inspiring. Richard Wasserman
