The book addresses topics that we currently discuss, but have never had a book to back up the discussion. I feel the book is strong and would be useful to students who are embarking on a career in graphic design. I would absolutely use this book with my senior portfolio class. -- Jerrold L. Graves, Pasadena City College, USA The tone of the author is very approachable, clear, and concise. My students really appreciate and benefit most when reading advice that sounds as if it speaks directly to them and this author does that well. -- Brittany Schade, Western Washington University, USA I really like how the author expresses her thoughts and experiences. It feels reflective of the industry and how we communicate with one another rather than some of the books that either come across as too academic or alternatively, too simple and basic. The approach fits very well with my courses. -- Angela Dow, Ferris State University, USA Well written, illustrated and easy to follow. * Timothy Bones, North Kent College, UK *
