Vietnam Inc.
内容简介
First published in 1971, Philip Jones Griffiths' account of the Vietnamese War was the outcome of three years' reporting and is a detailed survey of the conflict. Showing us the true horrors of the war as well as offering a study of Vietnamese folk life, the author argues against the de-humanizing power of technology and highlights the arrogance and hypocrisy of American imperialistic attitudes. This new edition is a recreation of the original with Philip Jones Griffiths' personal layouts and commentaries. There is a foreword by Noam Chomsky, who was profoundly affected by the book when it was originally published.

作者简介
Quote: "The ability to keep things in perspective is very important for a journalist.
In a tense situation you need the ability to be there, yet somehow step aside;
to keep a cool head and keep working without getting frustrated."
“对于一名记者来说，领悟局势的能力极为重要，在危机时刻，你需要站在正确的位置，
中立而冷静地完成任务，不被失败或消沉所左右。”
Philip Jones Griffiths 14岁便开始为杂志社拍摄照片，25岁成为『Observer』的全职自由摄影师，
1966至1971年在越南战争中的拍摄作品为其赢得了全球性声誉，战争结束后，正式加入玛格南图片社。
Griffiths的足迹遍及120多个国家，长期为《Life》等刊物提供第一现场的照片，在越战后他曾经两次重访越南，
并完成了两本极具影响力的越战后作品：《Agent Orange》以及《Vietnam at Peace》。
Griffiths的作品往往折射出科技与人性之间不平衡的关系，尤其是对人类愚昧行为的捕捉更为敏锐，尽管如此，
Griffiths依然坚信玛格南创始者们的道德信念：人性最终能改进现状。
2008年3月19日，Philip Jones Griffiths因癌症辞世于伦敦西区。
本书不仅拍摄了大量战争场面的图片,也留出大量篇幅记录当时人民的生活,包括多个方面,是一手的珍贵资料
