Customer Rating:      Summary: Great handbook for Graphic Designers Comment: I'm just starting out as a Designer (Still & Video) & I found this book was really engaging and well written. Full of examples, there's a design to go with each paragraph. I've found it really helpful when working with design concepts. This is a great handbook. I'm really glad I got it!
Customer Rating:      Summary: What I expected, lots of pictures. Comment: Book is informative, and full of images to go by. A great way to get new ideas.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Well written with lots of examples Comment: I find this book to be well written, the examples are clear and to the point, and the layout is attractive. There are several good Graphic Design books on the market, and I would include this one in any list of that sort. The only criticism I have is an aesthetic (and for some of us) practical one. The designer of the book chose a very small font for the picture callouts (captions), and also chose light gray on white for the text color. For those us us in the "bi-focal" generation, that makes the picture captions rather difficult to read. I would recommend this book, but get out your little magnifying glass before you open it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Awesome book Comment: I highly recommend this book for any designer, the book is filled with inspirational designs from around the world. It has a comprehensive study of the elements of design, as well as great tips for practical application.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good introduction to GD Comment: Good introductory book on design. Since I've never had any sort of training in Graphic design, these concepts were really useful. Not done reading yet but so far it's been a good read.
