Know more about Israel/Jews ...... Great Visual

Micha Bar-Am is an Israel photographer. From the notes written by Micha, we can see his enthusiasm, curiosity and effort when he started photographing in his early stage. You can also see how his country has changed and how his life has changed too, as indicated in his images. And most importantly, change is going go. There is always full of conflicts in his images and in this country, Israel. Don't read this book as a pure 'photography book'. You may be experiencing as a witness of the history of Israel and the Jewish community. To have better understanding of this country, her culture and her people, it gives good visual material.
