A very good review of this book (longer than mine) has recently appeared: see http://www.history.ac.uk/reviews/paper/gaspary.html#f2/ (accessed 26 February 2009). 7. Most notably, C. Pinney. 2004. Photos of the gods: The printed image and political struggle in India. London: Reaktion Books. Incidentally, George Orwell’s Burmese Days depicts a quite wide range of colonial attitudes to the peoples of the Raj. 8. Uncited works include: E. Maas. 1975.

A more detailed review of this book may be found in the Magic Lantern Gazette 20, no. 1 (Spring 2008): 19–20. 11. I am thinking of the work of the Russell Sage Foundation, and influential campaigners such as Evart and Mary Routzahn who espoused the use of film for health propaganda (a theme I am researching). 12.
