“This book is richly illustrated and provides a careful account of the tools available, effectively demonstrating how they can be applied, as well as how Caple has developed them to apply more closely to news images. … this is a worthwhile and timely contribution to the field of news discourse, which Caple has rightly demonstrated as, for all intents and purposes, multimodal.” (Helan A. Sissons, Communication Research and Practice, Vol. 3 (1), 2017)
