Why is that at all prohibited?? Don't they understand that inmates that have the opportunity to 'gratify themselves' once in a while are much more docile?
Or is this a political post?

These books are quite a production and the price is not extraordinary for such quality.

Whitey is a local phenom, I'm moving into his former turf. His story just keeps getting better.
Book is cheap for 320 pages hardback. Photography books I like cost the same for 1/8th the pages. I have a feeling that the TAS book doesn't make a penny given the amount of free contributions.
I'm not saying I ordered it, just that it's not expensive; you/I/we/us/whatever might be poor however.

Interestingly I had a book on Ansel Adams and I really didn't see what the fuss was about. However seeing the original prints in an exhibition you can then 'get' the skill and the art behind those images.
I've tried staring at magazine pictures of high-end amplifiers hoping to make my system sound better, but no luck.

The problem with Ansel Adams is that buying a book means the print inside of it is barely bigger than the negative. A 35mm print on an 8x10 is 7-8x magnification, but Ansel Adams 8x10in film is only typically done at 2-4x. What really lets you know how much talent he has... try doing large format some day and you'll understand! 35mm and medium format is hard enough to get remotely consistent pictures for composed shots like Adams would do.
The book that I'm wanting right now.
However I did get this not long ago, which came with three CD's. The rock one isn't the best perhaps, but it was literally meant for driving. The sounds and elegance (classical) CD's are actually very pleasurable. Perhaps TAS should have included a few test mixes?
Exactly my point. Unless you are standing in front of one of the big prints he did you don't get the resolution and dynamic range to understand why he had to develop his own processing methods to get the results he wanted.
Nice. But makes you want to give up photography as you know you'll never even get close...
Probably none. But you could calculate the resonant frequency based on the surrounding capacitance. Should be high enough that a chewing gum wrapper would be an adequate shield.
