What question was that Tim?

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be
a mile away and you'll have their shoes.
That it was odd "to write a book about the history of photography books without mentioning the two photographers whose work has probably been the subject of more books than all other photographers in the history of the medium comnbined."
Or was that just a straight observation allowing no room for a response or reply?
whatever, Adrian's quote from the book explained why:
"...what we have done is to try to start this project without preconceptions. No book or photographer has been automatically included just because the official history dictates it; many key fugures forn other histories have been excluded. We've omited a number of great photographers because thay've never made a great book. ..."
which seems right to the point

It certainly wasn't a question, it was an observation or statement though it apparently left room for a reply since you replied to it.
