This is a book most often used by students, thus cost is a factor, and 88.00 for this book is too much, and a sign of greed by the seller. It is a good and useful book, thus I gave it 2 stars, but the seller greed of the cost is huge in my view and worth removing the other three potential stars..

This book is a good read, but it is more geared toward college or university. The only reason I say this is because it is one of my art books for university.

This is a review for the Kindle version only. The book is a great source of information. However, it is incredibly frustrating not to be able to access any of the videos, projects, and links. I am sure I would have given it 5 stars if I had been able to access all the resources.

Liberty U uses this book in their Graphic Design major. I absolutely love it so far. It’s an easy but very instructive read. My only complaint is that the links to the online resources won’t work. I’m using Kindle for PC on a Microsoft Surface Pro 6.

A good source for information. Text book for a Graphic Communications course. I refer back to it for theories and principles all the time. Great to have. I recommend buying your text books, used or new.
