 It is what it is. March 2, 2010

If you're buying a this book, it's probably because it's required text for a class you're taking...
That being said, it's a decent book as far as that goes. Well organized, pretty thorough... But hey, it's a textbook.
As for the price and speed of shipment, amazing. You'd be an idiot to buy this at your campus bookstore.
if you like graphic design, or are just interested... December 15, 2009
Richard P. Mitchell (LA, CA USA)
then you need to get this book. Lots of visuals that relate to the text and a great comprehensive history. I've read it twice now since I bought it two weeks ago. I wish I would have known about before my History of graphic Design class.
Very good quality book. October 26, 2009

This is a wonderful book, and lives up to its reputation. Some of the images are not as of high quality as one would hope, but the author tells me that the next edition will have higher quality of some of the images. Overall, love the book
