The third volume of Skira's history of the medium focuses on the years marked by the revolution of colour, which began a radical change in the very nature of amateur practice.
At the same time, through photojournalism the medium became a mirror of society and a tool for attempts to change it. The book traces that historical evolution, focusing on figures such as Helen Levitt and others.
