Congratulations to SArD Associate Professor and alumna Yasmine Nachabe Taan for her book on women photographers in the region that was published with Bloomsbury, after a decade of ongoing research.
A must read, for those interested in photography, history, gender and anthropological studies, or anyone looking to embark on a journey of discovery.
