About The Bonds We Share: Images Of Humanity, 40 Years

Product Description In extraordinary, life-affirming photos taken around the world―from developing villages to urban centers―over the last 40 years, a photographer makes the bold case that what unites us is more powerful than the borders that divide us. A portion of the proceeds for The Bonds We Share will benefit Doctors Without Borders. Hailed as “photography's new conscience,” photographer and psychiatrist Dr. Glenn Losack has spent a lifetime traveling the world, determined to extend healing, hope, and compassion. With a camera in hand, he goes places that tourists rarely visit, including slums, alleys, and dark streets. He's seen struggle, but he's also seen our shared humanity: families playing together, laborers working, the devout praying to their gods. Dr. Losack has found resilience, joy, passion, and celebration in communities the world over, even in places plagued with corrupt government, poor infrastructure, and disease. The 240 captivating photos in The Bonds We Share, taken in India, the Dominican Republic, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Morocco, Peru, Tunisia, Sri Lanka, Egypt, the United States, Eastern Europe, and elsewhere, serve as a remarkable retrospective of Dr. Losack's work and reveal an essential truth: we may come from very different cultures, far-ranging geographic corners, belief systems, and economic circumstances, but we all share the same desire to work hard, raise families, and lead fulfilling lives. In this spectacular volume, Dr. Losack interrogates timely notions of difference and portrays the commonality of people from different cultures around the globe. Review “We may be separated by oceans, languages, and cultures, but we are all connected. Dr. Glenn Losack’s beautiful pictorial The Bonds We Share reminds us of our universal connection to one another through a series of stunning, personal, and often emotional images. Dr. Losack reminds us that we have so much more that joins us rather than separates us. In these faces from distant lands we can see much of ourselves. This is a joyful, celebratory collection.” —Jim Moret, author of The Last Day of My Life and chief correspondent of Inside Edition “Dr. Losack’s unforgettable photography in The Bonds We Share is exquisite and full of amazing, touching images which drive home the unquestionably powerful theme that people worldwide share a commonality in their daily lives. We all want a peaceful planet and a better, more meaningful future for our children. You will love this beautiful book and its profound, universal message.” —Rita Cosby, Emmy-winning journalist and best-selling author of Quiet Hero: Secret’s from My Father’s Past “I feel like I've just taken a trip around the world through Glenn's photographs. I am struck by the way he captures a world of different people in different places, illustrating that we are truly all the same. He shows us the amazing colors of life.” —May Pang, artist, former music executive, and author of Loving John and Instamatic Karma: Photos of John Lennon “Dr. Losack’s powerful photographs are not only stunning and poignant, but they also manage to reach deep into the soul and collective unconscious of his audience. He reminds us why we are here: to love, learn, and discover the beauty in one another. These are the bonds we all share and that show that we are all connected in this world.” —Dr. Jeff Gardere, psychologist, author, and contributor to Fox, NBC, MSNBC, and CNN “Glenn Losack has an unprecedented ability to peer into pain and find soul and beauty. His photography profoundly gives a voice to those who have no microphone.” —Alice Feiring, James Beard award-winning wine and travel writer and author of Naked Wine, For the Love of Wine, and Natural Wine for the People “A powerful and necessary message for our times, Dr. Losack’s work is massive, exquisite, and covers so many of life’s meaningful and evocative themes. He captures foreign cultures with an emotive awareness, and quite successfully involves his
