'The photographic industry - its exhibitions, galleries,
publications and auctions - employs thousands of women, but champions
mostly men. To begin to redress the balance, here is a timely
presentation of the work of over 30 female photographers working today.
This book is predominantly a celebration of some of the most
inquisitive, intelligent and daring photography being created now. The
stories the photographers tell are the most pressing social, political
and personal issues seen through the female lens (...)
There is a recurring theme throughout the book that
serves to unite these extraordinary women and their work: the
exploration of marginalized individuals and under-discussed subjects,
seen by fresh eyes.
A vivid showcase of work by more than thirty of the
world’s leading contemporary female documentary photographers,
presenting a cross-section of photographic disciplines and geographies;
