Universally recognized as the definitive competition for photographic reportage, it has been described by former art director of the Sunday Times Michael Rand as "the international photographic contest."Publishing the results of the latest annual World Press Photo Contest, this exceptional book contains the very best press photographs from 2016--pictures submitted by photojournalists, picture agencies, newspapers, and magazines throughout the world.Selected from thousands, these prize-winning photos capture the most powerful, moving, and sometimes disturbing images of the year.
