    The book is just “ok” when it comes to topics. I prefer not to have sections on developing but more on actual equipment and technique. I thought the digital section was well written but more should have been said since it’s eventually be the main part of photography for the future. I prefer to have a reference book written in a traditional school text book format. I don’t care for the “chopped up” sections for every page. To me it’s chaotic and not well organized. The first chapter is rather elusive and vague. I would have prefered a general introduction. I did not like the physical size of the book. It’s hard to hold and I would have prefered for a book of this cost a hard bound edition. If any of you old timers out there remember an excellent book, “The Amateur Photographer’s Handbook”, by Aaron Sussman, I would have liked “Photography- 7th Edition” to be similar in physical size and content. I have been using, “The Amateur Photographer’s Handbook” for so many years and it’s just too old for todays photography, that is why I purchased this one.

    I bought my daughter’s books through Amazon, instead of the campus book store. This book was one of five. I saved 50% by doing this. I would recommend Amazon to any student buying books.
