New book about car crash that took lives of Princess Diana and Dodi Fayed states there is little evidence to bolster initial police theories that photographers chasing car caused driver, Henri Paul, to lose control; says Paul, who was killed also, was far over legal driving limit for alcohol, and that remains biggest probable cause of tragedy; nevertheless, book paints devastating picture of behavior of some of photographers who had been chasing Diana and Fayed for 12 hours before crash; notes that only one of 10 photographers at scene of crash tried to call ambulance, and that most spent first minutes after crash snapping pictures of wrecked car and its dead or dying passengers; book is Investigation on the Death of Diana, written by Jean-Marie Pontaut and Jerome Dupuis, French reporters; photo (M)
