### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    this could be one of the best design theory books I've ever read!
  

*by G***Y on Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2020*

This book is so good, that it demands my respect by my studying it when I have time. It's not a quick read, but chock full of great learning. This is the kind of book I've been looking for in maybe 40 other book purchases! I am not sure older versions of this book are this good, but I'm going to find out.

    A Keeper Graphic Design "THINK" Reference
  

*by B***G on Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2014*

I checked this book out twice from my local library.  I wanted to highlight sections and write in the margins with ideas I was getting.  So I ended up buying the book!  Great information.  Like many design books, the style of graphics presented might not be my style, but the ideas and concepts presented are excellent.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Improvement over prior edition
  

*by C***A on Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2014*

Much more readable than the previous edition. I use both side by side and recommend students purchase the newer edition over the previous one for the more concise editing and additional images that better illustrate the concepts.
