DESCRIPTION:
"Yikes !" according to D. Zoomer. I'm relatively new to the world of graphic design, but I'm quite comfortable with desktop publishing and computer graphics. I found this book to be a mish-mash of ideas and concepts that confused more than educated. I found over 20 terms introduced in one chapter with no follow up definition or description. The author jumps from one subject to another aimlessly; like going from a discussion on papers to handling a client's budget (she calls it the "Budget Ogre")in the same paragraph. Don't waste your . A Customer said Excellent for beginners. This is a somewhat simplistic, but very good book for beginning designers. There are a lot of good samples and the author talks you through the why's and wherefore's. I wish it had more specific information on how to accomplish these designs using more standard software (like Pagemaker). Oh, well, it's still a good book.
Take-it-to-the-studio advice for designers looking for information on planning, designing and producing brochures and booklets that entertain, sell and inform.
