Photo fakery the history and techniques of photographic deception and manipulation

From the earliest days of the art form, when multiple exposures provided 'evidence' of the spirit world, to computer-enhanced digital doctoring, photography has been fertile ground for fakery. This book examines the history of all types of photographic fakery. The author, formerly one of the CIA's senior photo interpreters, presents hundreds of photographs that were contrived or altered, often succeeding greatly in their fakery by playing a part in history. He explains clearly, for the non-photographer, how these deceptions were accomplished and how to spot them. He also explores the benefits and dangers of doctored photos and the many problems raised for the legal profession.
