The author, a prolific maker of experimental art books, explores the possibilities of the book as object and experience. Many of the books discussed are hand-craft art objects, involving use of unorthodox materials, bindings, and structures. Contains a section on the theory of ordering images, which proposes a difference between a "series" and a "sequence," which challenges the traditional photo book approach.
