3.0 out of 5 stars Could Have Been Better, August 14, 2006
This review is from: Breaking the Rules in Publication Design (Graphic Design) (Hardcover)
It's a nice book visually, but it does lack detail. They tell you who the designer or design house is, etc., and there are some great, unique things in this book, but a bit of information about the hows and whys would have taken it to an entirely new level.

If you are a design book collector, then I'd recommend it. If you're looking for a book that gives you enough detail and instruction that you might learn something from it, then I'd give this one a pass.

1.0 out of 5 stars Pretty images but no explanation, July 13, 2004
By 
David Ruano (Miami, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Breaking the Rules in Publication Design (Graphic Design) (Hardcover)
It is not what I expected. The book starts with a two page introduction where the author expose his point of view on how publication design is constantly changing. Then another brief paragraph to introduce us to every topic and on the next pages there's nothing but images with samples with no explanation of the purpose of the publication, or how the creative director solved the problem. The book doesn't give you any insight of the projects displayed in it. In other words, the book is nothing but pretty images with no explanation (other than the creative group and the page number). I was really disappointed because I have seen better publications from Supon Group like "Breaking the Rules in Graphic Design", but "Breaking the Rules in Publication Desing" is really bad.
