After two years of working for design firms, it has become clear that I lack even the most basic grammar. Time to change that.

Incredibly thorough on Western history, but as a teacher of primarily Black and brown students I feel it's light on indigenous and modern BIPOC designers and influences. Consider expanding this in the next edition.

Best resource for Graphic Design history. I read every chapter and will re-read from time to time. A lot of visuals in the book as well.

I been using this book in my graphic design school. Everything in it well explained and with illustrations. On my opinion this is the best graphic design history book which exist nowadays. If you are student, don't hesitate to read it.

You don't have to be a graphic designer to love this book. You just have to enjoy history.

Thorough and expansive, not much can be said about this that hasn't been already. There's a reason it's the staple of every graphic design course's reading lists. A must for students.
