I do not think it is. Michael Langford's books "Basic Photography", "Advanced Photography", and "Color Photography" constituted a complete college education in photography. I used to recommend them to anyone who was really serious about photography. They are kind of overkill for the dabblers. Amazon.com shows the 6th edition was published in 1998.

Don, a little late in responding to this one, but my bible for photographic
stuff is Langford's "Basic Photography". It has everything you could
possibly want to know, IMHO, but it isn't for dummies! Some formulae, and
extensive discussions of most topics . The sub-title is "A Primer for
Professionals" so that perhaps gives you a clue as to it's intended
readership.
The ISBN number is 0 240 50617 0 in paperback, and although my edition was
published in 1977, I'm pretty sure it's still in print.

There are some seemingly very contradictory viewpoints on Depth of Field,
Angle (Area) of View and Perspective on the list.
I *think* I understand these things in my own mind, but would like to be
sure.
Can someone recommend a good website or book that explains these things in
*layman terms* but accurate detail?
It would be very nice if the info applied to any media format.
