Summary: Ok, I guess
Comment: Had to get this for school

Has some good parts in it. But overall it was only so-so. I had a single lecture from my professor and it was WAY better then this entire book, but I guess it's all relative. Perhaps when I get further into the New-Media world I will appreciate this more. I don't think I would have gotten this if I did not have to, but I like it enough to keep it around.

Summary: incredible!
Comment: While taking one of my design courses last semester, I was very enthusiastically recommended this book by a professor of mine. Since it was in my school's library, I decided to check it out. The book is, simply put, flat-out amazing. I have read it several times since, and would recommend it to anybody in the field of graphic or web design. There is so much fantastic information and insight, and it's all laid out beautifully and extremely easy to understand (and read!). Phenomenal.

Summary: Very recommended, lots of insight about creative practice
Comment: I'm just starting to learn about design, reading online and checking some books at the library of my college. This book is a great help because it does tell you the key fact that all ideas are there, borrowing is ok to transform something into a new well crafted thing,and you can find inspiration in many, many ways. Many useful information, tips, quotes, in general, I'm gonna buy this book for my collection.

Editorial Reviews:

MTIV (Making the Invisible Visible) is an indispensable guide for the new age of media design. This book is about HOW to achieve the results that bring in profits and make you a better designer. This beautifully written and designed book unveils the methods behind Hillman Curtis' phenomenal success as a new media designer. In well-crafted narrative and instructional form, Hillman outlines his systematic approach for working with clients to develop clear, cogent, and creative communication - three "musts" for successful design.

Through trial and error, Hillman and his company honed a seven-step process for creating concepts, and developing and designing new media. Often overlooked or unknown by designers, the methods in this book are distilled from years of experience and enhanced by Hillman's years as a leader in the design field. Divided into three parts - "Process," "Inspiration," and "Practice" - the book offers a practical methodology for successful artistic and professional work and also offers technical advice for translating this to the web (color, XML, streaming media, and other topics are discussed). Written with a subtle sense of humor and narration that really flows, this book is a joy to read, with great advice that helps designers with their own design work.
