I really liked this book actually. It simply contains page after page of quotes, but also a random assortment of illustrations to help mediate the flow of the book. I pick it up when I feel uninspired and I remember why I chose my career all over again. I recommend it as a coffee table book definitely.

...in a few words, But Great Insight!

I was intrigued by the title of this book and once opened it was a like a cool breeze on a summer day. As a veteran designer I found myself nodding the head with affirmation. What is contained in the book is pretty simple; just read the description. The quotes, tips and insights are well worth remembering whether you are a designer or a client. Thought provoking for those serious about design.
