See/Saw is an illuminating history of how photographs frame and change our perspectives. Starting from single images by the world''s most important photographers - from Eugène Atget to Alex Webb - Geoff Dyer shows us how to read a photograph, as he takes us through a series of close readings that are by turns moving, funny, prescient and surprising.
