10.		Layout Index: Brochure, Web Design, Poster, Flyer, Advertising, Page Layout, Newsletter, Stationery Index from North Light Books Price: $15.63 Customer Review: This book can give some ideas on layouts, but the designs on it are very dated.

It's a good book for starters but I prefer... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

14.		A Typographic Workbook: A Primer to History, Techniques, and Artistry from John Wiley & Sons Customer Review: I am currently using this book for a college course.

15.		Type Rules! from North Light Books Customer Review: The author teaches at SVA, where I'm a student. I had hoped the exercises in this book would improve my skills, but it's really for beginners, giving an overview of the basic principles.

There are better books out there... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom
