“Every art director, copywriter, planner, account person and client should read it. It will make you better at your job.” - Paul Belford, Creative Review.
“This is a book about typography and photography. About the hijacking of European design theory… But mainly this is a book about The Idea. Challis’s book is a parade of huge, timeless ideas, how they came to be and what they meant.” - Marty Cooke, The One Club.
