Graphic Design: A New History

Bought it for a class, very educational, arrived new and neat. Sturdy hard cover.

I am almost done reading this book and I love it. The work samples are brilliant and illustrate the concepts and design rules well. The paper is thick and silky to the touch. I've been doing in-house design for over 9 years and I need to start doing some work just to sharpen my creative skills and expand my practice, as working in-house is repetitive and can limit creative opportunities. I'm inspired to try some of the exercises highlighted in this book.

Great book. Both academically grounded and exceptionally readable.

Came in just fine
