Reviews

[Alison]

One of the best books in existence for people who create magazines.

[Mark Hoffberg]

Not 100% relevant anymore, but still the bible for magazine layout

[Lidia Rosa]

Un libro que mezcla lo teórico con lo practico en lo que corresponde al diseño editorial, sobretodo de revistas.

[Rob]

So excellent in so many ways. Solid ground for print design: Start With This.

[Sanjeev]

Very nice book on design. It is meant for print and is from a different era but it provides many good ideas on how to think.

[Anne Bollmann (Annelise Lestrange)]

This book is precious to anyone who deserves to start art edition of any publication at all. Very helpful, practical and full of pictures, there's no way to keep thinking of editing or design as something hard.

[Jeremiah Ross]

Editing by design is a guide for design editors but approachable by laypeople. The thesis, that good editing requires content curation to align with how the audience will interact with the medium, certainly changed my approach to communication.

[Rob]

A good read for any publication designer. I wish I would've read this 10 years ago before I launched into magazine design.

[Peggy Nehmen]

Excellent design and layout advice from Jan V. White. I have used this book as a reference when I need to educate a client. Valuable for any designer.

[Catherine Austen]

Lots of good information, with theoretical information demonstrated vividly. Great for anyone interested in publication.
