Format:Paperback
You couldn't hope to get more useful information from a 460 page book than you do from this thin 46 page book. I learned 90% of what I was taught in 5 separate design classes within this single tiny book. It's a must-have for all beginning, and even expert, designers!

I picked this book up in 1979 as an aspiring advertising copywriter who wanted to know more about graphic design. Now, after 20 years in the advertising business, as both a creative director and agency owner, I still refer novice ad writers and art directors to this wonderful overview. I simply can't believe how much easy-to-understand info is condensed into so few pages. My bravos and acknowledgements to Berryman.

Notes on Graphic Design and Visual Communication is the most essential graphic design book written. Despite being very thin in quantity of pages, this book holds an enormous amount of graphic knowledge. I am currently studying Industrial Design and was refered to this book by a professor to help me with my graphic design knowledge. It opened the world of graphics up to me in an easy to read, fun package. The only complaint I`ve heard of this book is the font used for text. This book has a hand written font which can sometimes be hard to read. I have had no problems with the font however.

AWESOME handbook for graphic designers
The only reason I gave this a four out of five stars is because the author wrote in all caps which is incredibly hard to read page after page. Read more
