Powerful stuff indeed, if you like photojournalism that pulls no punches have a look at State of the World. It's a fantastic collection of photographs by reuters best photographers, some of them harrowing, some touching and some just plain wierd. A very good read though

I don't know... maybe it's just me but I think these shots are pretty poor. I've seen far better sets of press images. (Please don't shoot me!)

Nice. Used to love AP's press photo of the year awards around new year. Great issue. Haven't seen it for years though.
