Full Book Catalog: 8 Titles

This is the official catalog for all my book-length works, either authored or edited. The list below will always have the latest editions and will be expanded as new projects are completed. With one specific exception—where the list below links to PolarTREC, an approved website—I should warn that books bearing my name from elsewhere in the Internet may not necessarily be up-to-date.

If you enjoy my work, the best way to patronize me is to buy my books—in print format—from my official bookstore at the Blurb website, located at http://www.blurb.com/user/caussade/. As of February 2021 four of the books on the list below are available to order in print from Blurb, and the complete catalog should eventually be available in print.

This photo book contains 32 near-infrared images obtained with a Wratten 87 filter, which blocks the full spectrum of visible light. What makes this different from other compilations is that each infrared shot comes together with its visible light counterparts. This book also runs counter to prevailing trends, as all renderings of the infrared are strictly in grayscale.
