This is great, not suitable for me to sit down and read from front to back, but to flick through with the kids. My two yr old just had a look at some of the pics, but if course pointed out all the 'bare bums'!

And of course excited to see Maeve Binchy write the prologue.

The pictures did evoke in me feelings of sadness, joy and reminiscences, reminding me of the powerfull capacity in us to feel.

It is interesting that most of the pictures are in black and white.

Reading the background to the stories also moved me. In particular, the village scene with the children playing and adults watching, the dog and three children running with the tyre rim and the brother being with his sister after her prosthetic limbs are removed.

Humanity in motion.

This is without a doubt my most favourite coffee table book thus far. It takes a varied and relatively inclusive, thorough look at the moments upon which humanity is based: relationships. It is a collection of stunningly beautiful photographs depicting the good, the bad and the ugly in an uncensored and completely authentic manner. There is no posing for the camera, simply snapshots of natural life that all can relate to.

The collection of photos in this book comprise the most beautiful celebration of humanity I have ever seen. From friendship to family to romantic love, the photos will make your heart alternately ache and leap for joy while expanding its capacity for love. I highly recommend it for artists, writers, musicians and any others who are students of human connectedness.
