Selected by Andy Grundberg in The New York Times Book Review as one of the ten best photography books of 1994. - From the publisher: "Selected by Andy Grundberg in The New York Times Book Review as one of the ten best photography books of 1994, Harms Way brings together four unusual collections which had been hidden from then history of photography. The book includes turn-of-the-century crime scenes, nineteenth-century asylum inmate portraits with calligraphic annotations detailing the patient's diagnoses, nineteenth-century medical photographs, and a selection of images from the Kinsey Institute for Sex Research. The ability of the photograph to show us our powerlessness in the face of madness, lust, disease and death, survives in these brittle and arresting images."
