I got this for school, I thought it would be a good read. I was wrong. I could have passed the class without buying the book.

Although this text is a vital first step in design education, it falls short for an experienced designer; basic juxtaposition, etc. Get it out of a library and spend your money on any of the Looking Closer series by Michael Beirut… they will infinitely expand your perceptions of what design is and explores contemporary issues facing designers today.
