I love the idea of this book, but I just can't seem to make myself read it. The meat of the information is set in a tight gray block of tiny, fine letters. Every time I try to read that, it just seems so serious and difficult; it makes me feel way too tired to try to read. Considering that, maybe I don't really want to learn about book design from this guy after all.

Meanwhile I am working for my bachelor thesis in creating a magazine and I think that this literature was more than helpful!! Really would recommend it if you search something that is easy understandable and also helpful for your own work as a designer.

Outdated but theoretically useful in understanding the concepts and principles of magazine design and publishing.
