With so many books and authors steamrollering the market, it becomes hard to select the right book, especially in the world of graphic design. You may listen to the great designers<\/a> talk and discuss design concepts, but there\u2019s something different about the books. Let me tell you a secret; books are the best bet because they\u2019re a complex kaleidoscope of ideas, practices, and experiences all juiced into a paperback copy. And the credibility of the author becomes noticeable when the reader invites these ideas into the latticework of his own understanding and hence, gives birth to a whole new notion.<\/p>\n
