Curated by Sophie Spencer-Wood, this book is\n a collection of 175 photographs taken by photographers,\n famous and lesser known, of their own families. It is an\n intimate study of the relationships - tender and awkward,\n knowing and innocent - that take place between adults and\n children in the family unit. Recognizable and relevant to\n us all, these emotions are linked in a symphonic sequence\n moving from one photographer to the next. With an\n introduction by Henri Peretz and notes on the photographs\n by Margaret Walters, \u003ci\u003eFamily\u003c\/i\u003e draws on the same impulses\n that compel us all to take pictures of our own families.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSophie Spencer-Wood is a picture editor and researcher.\n She worked as assistant to Bruce Bernard on Phaidon Press's\n award-winning book \u003ci\u003eCentury\u003c\/i\u003e (1999).
