Title: The Book I was Looking For
Review: This is an excellent "how-to" book for making the transition to digital black-and-white photography. Unlike Photoshop books, it is not so much organized around tools as around the different attributes of a black and white print that the photographer and print maker wishes to control. The book gives a clear explanation, with examples, of each attribute and how to use the tools in Photoshop to control that attribute. I'm an amateur black and white photographer with about 20 years of experience in the darkroom, but I think the book would also be accessible for someone just starting to learn about black and white photography and printing.
