Swinging sex lives of everyday Americans Naomi Harris's subjects are not the usual perfected androids who populate contemporary erotica, but ordinary people with extraordinary sex lives; this book explores a rarely-seen side of sex in America. This edition is limited to 1,000 numbered copies, signed by both Naomi Harris and Richard Prince. The cover features a four-color, silk screened, 3-dimensional stamped metal reproduction of a classic American motel sign, specially conceived and created for this edition. Richard Prince discovered Naomi Harris in TASCHEN's The New Erotic Photography and was so intrigued by her photos of American swingers that he tracked down the 34-year-old New Yorker, determined to make her his protege. When he discovered TASCHEN had signed her to do America Swings he asked to do an interview with her, where he reveals part of what makes her work so unique: "When I look at one of your swinger photos what I'm looking at is mostly you outside' the picture looking at what you're photographing half-naked, all naked, taking these photos of next-door neighbors having sex He refers to Harris's secret for winning the confidence of her subjects: To penetrate the world of middle class mate-swapping she had to join them, often working in just shoes and a tool belt to hold her camera gear. Her extreme technique worked so well that in 48 months she was able to photograph 38 parties, crisscrossing the country from Mahwah, New Jersey, to Pleasanton, California; from Big Lake, Minnesota, to Washington, Texas. Her subjects are not the usual perfected androids who populate contemporary erotica, but ordinary people with extraordinary sex lives, including multi-orgasmic schoolteachers, polyamorous nurses, bi-sexual senior citizens and the Mandingos, a group of African-American men who service white wives.

La extraordinaria carrera del fotógrafo de la Revolución. Alberto Díaz Gutiérrez, para todos Korda, es internacionalmente reconocido como uno de los maestros de la fotografía cubana de la Revolución, cuyas imagenes del Che Guevara y Fidel Castro inspieraron a generaciones de jovenes a lo largo de los años sesenta y setenta.

Desde los primeros trabajos publicitarios a inicio de la decada de los cincuenta, seguimos la entrada de Korda en el mundo de la moda y su pasion por lo que el definio como "una estetica de la belleza", que percibio no solo en las sensuales curvas femeninas, sino ademas en el particular paisaje cubano y en el esplendor de los revolucionarios cubanos.
