Do you want to know how silver halide (AgX) photography works?
Then read James and Higgins Fundamentals of Photographic Theory it is written as a college freshman textbook by Kodak scientists. Unlike Mees and James Theory of the Photographic Process you dont need a PhD in Chemistry to understand what they are trying to tell you. James and Higgins explains the principles in very simple language then fills in the details. After reading this you will have a thorough understanding of how AgX photography works. Rather than blindly following the directions you will understand why you are taking specific action. You will even know the consequence of altering your actions.
It is an easy read. Second edition 1960. Hardcover 345 pages. The theory that was known in the 1950s is the same as the theory of 2012.
Chapters are:
Terminology
Photographic Emulsion
Latent Image
Exposure effects
Development
Developers
Kinetics of Development
Fixing and Washing
Sensitometry
Tone Reproduction
Image Structure
Sensitizing
