From a review by Taylor Holliday, The Wall Street Journal
"While some may take issue with aspects of Mr. Coleman's oeuvre of humanist criticism, none would deny that as this country's first and foremost photo critic he has made a singular contribution to the field, broadening both the definition and discussion of photography.

" A collection of his writings from 1968-1978 called Light Readings has long been a must-read for anyone serious about photography, and has now been reissued in an expanded second edition. . . . And for those up to the challenge, there is his latest book of essays, Depth of Field, in which he distills three decades of thought on the bigger questions, such as 'Where did photography come from?' and 'Where might we be heading with it at the end of this century?'"

--Taylor Holliday, The Wall Street Journal, December 4, 1998
