This book crystallizes the basics of fabulous design! So many books on the topic get bogged down in heavy explanations--this one zeroes in on the principles and makes learning fun. If you want the gist of good design without a lot of time-wasting minutia, then this is your book!
It's not possible to read this and not benefit! (No wonder classrooms at college level use this book all across the country!)
