This anthology of essays posits how the question of when photography came to be everywhere shapes our understanding of all manner of photographic media.

While photography's distribution across cultures today is undeniable, the insidious logics and pervasive myths that have governed its spread demand our critical attention, now more than ever."--Back cover.
