Magazine
Turning World Magazine is a full-color publication printed and delivered "on demand" in cooperation with MagCloud™. The "on demand" model helps reduce waste, because fewer unsold copies are printed and fewer sold copies are unwanted (as can occur when magazines are sold by subscription). Turning World does not receive money from issue sales because the company has always offered the magazine at a price that does not include profit for Turning World.

SEEING SYRIA
One Photographer's Troubled Attempt to Record the War
by Brad Workman
"Maybe if I start with an apology -- an apology not for what this magazine contains but rather for what it does not
contain. It does not contain any 'front line' imagery or enough graphic evidence of the ravenous habits of the monster that
is the (un)civil war in Syria."

HAITI HAITI DÉJÀ VU
25 Photographs from the Magazine's First Year
by Brad Workman
"As a journalist and particular publisher it is one of my ambitions and obligations to help people keep seeing Haiti — maybe
even in a new way — even though I have not been there to produce something entirely new. For in Haiti, a beautiful lady, the ugly
conditions are widespread and continue."

DOWNTOWN
Seeing Human Need in the Heart of Port-au-Prince
Images by Brad Workman
"Is it the Church or the State (or neither or both) that we should hold responsible for uplifting each
one of the alms seekers, the unbalanced, and the variously troubled people I so easily found in the open air
by moving on a motorbike through the streets around the once-massive, once-iconic white palace?"

THE ENDLESS TREMBLE
A Vagabond's Glimpse of Post-quake Haiti
Images by Brad Workman: 4/2010 to 4/2011
WHILE Haitians in and around Port-au-Prince were fighting to recover from the January 2010 earthquake and the country was fighting a cholera epidemic candidate Michel Martelly was fighting to become the nation's president elect. Martelly succeeded by winning a runoff vote, but only after supporters angry over preliminary first-round results blocked capital streets with fire and competitor Jude Célestin was knocked from the contest by revised vote totals. This issue contains an American's reportage from multiple trips made to Haiti during this critical time in the country.

Clarification/Correction: The caption on the bottom of page 15 reads as if an image on page 14 that it refers to was taken at the sole "mayor's compound" in Delmas. But, when the image was taken there was at least one other 'mayor's compound' in Delmas.
Advisory: Text for the image on the bottom of page 59 identifies the main subject as "a fallen tear-gas victim." He seemed to be being treated as such by people at the scene. Police fired crowd-control agent(s) during the protests, but the photographer later realized he never saw the gentleman being exposed to gas. An images sequence the photographer made of him is at http://www.turningworld.org/advisory.htm.

FACING THE QUAKE:
Impromptu Portraits from
Haiti's Post-catastrophe Encampments
by Brad Workman
"Regardless, it seems obvious to me that the leading reason people would continue to live in an encampment is because they are convinced that
they have no better option. That is the prime reason I first went to the camps to make photographs. And, far beyond any fondness for the portraits, it is the prime
reason I continued to return."
