Synopsis
Originally published in 1970, this understated gem of a book by one of America's most important post-war photographers has long been out of print. Among collectors, the original edition has been known to fetch considerable sums. Now, the book is finally available again, and it has lost none of its importance. Featuring a sequenced assortment of images, and shot over a period of six years, the book depicts not self-portraits in the usual sense, but rather intimations of self-portraits: shadows, window reflections, and obstructed views of the photographer each present Friedlander as fading -- sometimes ghost-like -- into the over-all composition. A sublime and important book., The fourth edition of Nutrition: maintaining and improving health continues to offer wide-ranging coverage of all aspects of nutrition, including: * nutritional assessment * epidemiological and experimental methods used in nutrition research * social aspects of nutrition * the science of food as a source of energy and essential nutritients * variation in nutritional needs and priorities at different stages of the life-cycle * hospital malnutrition * the use of dietary supplementsand functional foods Completely updated, this accessible textbook offers a comprehensive guide to the roles of diet in causing, preventing and even treating chronic disease and maintaining good health. The importance of improving health is a guiding principle throughout the book and is underpinned by health promotion theory. This is essential reading for all nutrition and dietetics students, including those studying nutrition modules as part of food science, catering or health care courses, Lee Friedlander's surreal sensibility is on full display in this set of photographs, originally published in 1970. Here Friedlander focuses on the role of his own physical presence in his images. He writes: "At first, my presence in my photos was fascinating and disturbing. But as time passed and I was more a part of other ideas in my photos, I was able to add a giggle to those feelings." Here readers can witness this progression as Friedlander appears in the form of his shadow, or reflected in windows and mirrors, and only occasionally fully visible through his own camera. In some photos he visibly struggles with the notion of self-portraiture, desultorily shooting himself in household mirrors and other reflective surfaces. Soon, though, he begins to toy with the pictures, almost teasingly inserting his shadow into them to amusing and provocative effect--elongated and trailing a group of women seen only from the knees down; cast and bent over a chair as if seated in it; mirroring the silhouette of someone walking down the street ahead of him; or falling on the desert ground, a large bush standing in for hair. These uncanny self-portraits evoke a surprisingly full landscape of the artist's life and mind. This reprint edition of Lee Friedlander: Self Portrait contains nearly 50 duotone images and an afterword by John Szarkowski, former Director of the Department of Photography at The Museum of Modern Art.
