Customer Reviews

Highly Recommended

Moen's writing, classes and lectures have been incredibly helpful to me throughout the years. His books are a comprehensive guide to layout and design and I recommend them to all of my colleagues.

It's comprehensive

I found this book useful, and I have been a designer for five years. I didn't have to use the first few chapters because it covers the basics, but I found many useful chapters in the book, especially those on typography, color and redesign. I have also used some of the material in designing sections.

Recommended

Moen's work is very readable, written in a very clear and precise style. Moen addresses most of the trends in modern newspaper layout and design, emphasizing visual journalism as a team effort. It is an excellent introduction to newspaper layout and design, one I will recommend to students and fellow instructors. Coupled with his workbook, Layout and Design should provide newspaper teams the theory and practical advice by which to build solid publications that tell the "story" the best way possible, whether that be through text, photos or "infographics."
