From the Introduction: "I have intentionally limited my text to the fundamentals of operative technique, to the description of the simplest necessary apparatus, and to s suggestion of the aesthetic rational of the medium...I hope, above all, to indicate in this book the basis of 'straight' photography, and what may be achieved by simple and logical procedure in the production of unmanipulated negatives and prints."
