 I just finished reading Camera Obscura and enjoyed it from several vantage points. First, as a teacher of history, it was a gripping story wrapped around contemporary issues involving the Catholic Church. It touches on the obvious problems of the Church�s sexual hypocrisy, but is most concerned with the more important issue of the Church and the ethics of its finances. The author obviously has done his homework, not only regarding the Catholic Church in Los Angeles, but also its financial dealings on an international level. Also, as someone who has gone through the death of two elderly parents, the book raised thought provoking questions regarding the issue of personal responsibility and current end-of �life policies.

 As a fusion of religion, corruption, mystery, and
end-of life ethics -- this book focused my attention
on matters of contemporary importance, as seen
through the author's well-developed subject and
searing lens. As a photographer, I was enthralled
by �Camera Obscura,� for its framing of profound and
thought-provoking issues, which disturb the senses,
stimulate the mind and linger long after the last page.
