About This Item
Dulles. VA: Brassey's, 1999. xii, 227 pages, illustrations; 28 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Dogeared a couple of times, with light edgewear to wraps. Stated First Edition. "From the earliest days of the art form, when multiple exposures provided 'evidence' of the spirit world, to computer-enhanced digital doctoring, photography has been fertile ground for fakery. This book examines the history of all types of photographic fakery. The author, formerly one of the CIA's senior photo interpreters, presents hundreds of photographs that were contrived or altered, often succeeding greatly in their fakery by playing a part in history. He explains clearly, for the non-photographer, how these deceptions were accomplished and how to spot them. He also explores the benefits and dangers of doctored photos and the many problems raised for the legal profession." - Publisher. CONTENTS: Photo fakery is everywhere; Types of photo fakery; The beginning; The media years; Spotting fakes; Communists, ghosts, monsters, and aliens; Photo manipulation; Legal ramifications.. 1st.
