Graphic Design That Works: Secrets for Successful Logo, Magazine, Brochure, Promotion, and Identity Design

Customer Reviews:

terribly tiny type

By juicyfruit - December 27, 2006

I got the softcover version of this book and have paged through parts of it. The case studies are interesting and perhaps inspirational, but the content is secondary here because -- and this is the only reason I'm writing this review -- THE TYPE IS TOO SMALL!!! Now as a 28-year-old designer with average vision, who loves small type and good design as much as anyone, I know what it feels like to have a client ruin a perfectly good design by saying they can't read 10 pt type. But this book's type is really too tiny to be functional. The effort of reading gets in the way of enjoyment. I recommend holding the book about six inches away in very bright light. If you buy this book, get the hardcover version; apparently it's larger-sized.

Graphic that really works

By Kenneth Henry - December 12, 2007

I recommend this publication for all Graphic Artist/Designers. I also use this book as as a teaching aid for my graphic design students. Very educational and the historical data is so simple but yet detail.

Almost unreadable

By James W. Rhoads - February 1, 2007

Most of the type in this book has been done using a size 6 Font which as far as I am concerned makes it practically unreadable. The content may be great, but I can't tell as I refuse to ruin my eyes trying to read type this small. It remainds me of the disclaimers that advertisers use at the bottom so you can't read them. Unless you absolutely must have this book, I would strongly advise finding another one
