商品簡介

This unusual book was originally published in Italian (ISBN Edizioni, Italy; 2004) and is here made available in translation for English-speakers. Some 300 photos taken by police photographers of people in custody are presented, each with a page or so of explanatory text. The subjects include many from the US, but a good portion, also, from Italy and elsewhere. Among them are celebrities of all types and their children--booked for various petty and not-so-petty crimes; notorious violent criminals; political prisoners; and everyday individuals justly or unjustly held. The concluding essay is a philosophical reflection on the political and historical significance of photography in general and of police photography in particular. Papi is an Italian journalist, book author, and publisher. Annotation c2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
