I hate to say it but. the old Basic Photography series from Ansel Adams is dated as hell but it's the best introduction to sensitometry that you will ever find. Gamma tells you a little bit about the image scale... it tells you about the midrange contrast. It doesn't tell you about highlight

Just to piggyback on/unpack Tom's mention of "Hapax Legomena"--it's actually 7 films (that can be considered as one larger unit). The title refers to words that only appear once in the written record, in an author's work, etc. (In ancient texts, this makes them especially difficult to decipher
