I have been slowly building my Design Library, and this book made me laugh right out loud! Just by looking at the sample page excerpts offered, one can tell that this book is a total waste of money to anyone with a fine arts-based design degree. But, if you do not have any idea about design, and enjoy cookie-cutter, bland, out-dated design, or if you don’t need much to inspire you, then this book would probably be just fine for your library.

This book is at first appearance, visually interesting and consuming. But upon closer look (as in opening it) it’s not worth the time, money or breath sadly. The concepts and ideas within this book can be inspiring to thoses who have the time and energy, but overall this book is just a display of bad, kitsch design. My advice? Don’t bother. Rating: 2 / 5

Read carefully, this book can fit in your pocket and the layout recommendations are for beginners only. If you are a professional designer, don’t waste your money. Rating: 1 / 5

The whole “index” series is good for jump starting when in a stuck place. For average students it can really be helpful to get them to seek/create more variety in their work. For marketing or PR individuals or students it is a must have. Many individuals may have a cursory introduction to design and yet find themselves having to create layouts and design. The Index Books are a lifesaver. Rating: 4 / 5

This book is another great book in their series. I own both of them & used it everyday at work to save me time brainstorming. Cant wait for another one in the series. Great Jobs! Rating: 5 / 5
