"In these theoretical essays, the author-designers create their most challenging, playful, and original work". -- Michael Rock, I.D. Magazine
"It is striking not just in ambition, range, and detail, but also in their attempt to embody ideas in and through design, taking seriously the fact that form and content intertwine". -- Robin Kinross, Eye
"A pleasure to look at, to read, and to go back to over and over again. The writing is well researched, offers new ideas, and even a little controversy now and then. This is what contemporary design, writing, and research look like". -- Erik Spiekermann, Blueprint
"Serious, considered, and provocative". -- Tod Lippy, Print | | Langues : | Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Américain (ame) | | Catégories : | Dessin et dessins

A section on Media looks at the role of design in mass communications with erudite essays on stock photography, visual journalism, illustration, advertising and vernacular design cultures. The book closes with History, a section organized as a time-line spanning 200 years of design in America.
These historical case studies show how the modern profession of graphic design emerged in response to cultural, political and economic developments in the US.
