Photographer and cultural theorist Victor Burgin puts his two talents to good use in this book. Some Cities combines Burgin's thoughts on the way cities live in our consciousness with photographs he has taken in cities to striking effect. Burgin clearly loves his subject. A fine addition for anyone who has enjoyed Burgin's theory (see, for example, "The End of Art Theory") and would like to see how he applies them toward his own artistic expression. Very highly recommended.
