This is one of my favorite Graphic Design books to flick through for inspiration when i have a bit of a mental block in my design work. As the title suggests the book is full of witty GD from other designers over the past 30 years. The book is highly illustrative and ranges from adverts to packaging, letterheads to invitations. The work inside is simple and quirky. Clever in a way that it works effortlessly to make you smile and in return it is memorable. It encourages the designer to keep it simple and fun advising readers that the best ideas will come easily most likely when your not trying. The book also includes interviews with 26 of the worlds top designers including Milton Glaser and John Gorham.
