The #1 small book about learning graphic design

The book is short, sweet, loaded with excellent examples and it teaches many of the essentials in an easy, enjoyable manner.

I am a software developer by trade, but I also do graphical design for user interfaces and web sites. I can't afford to absorb a large amount of material on this subject just to extract the essentials. This book is exactly what I need.

The Elements of Graphic Design lives up to its namesake, Strunk and White's Elements classic, both in quality and succinctness.

Design fundamentals an engineer can understand

Been looking for an entry point to graphic design for a long time, but this book is the first time I've actually "got it". Very succinct, no hand-waving, with excellent explanations and examples. I was working on a document design while reading this book, and with each chapter I was able to further revise the design and see it evolve. I'm very indebted to the author for opening up a whole new part of my right-brain.

I love this book!

This is not just a coffee table book of pretty pictures, it is filled with great advice for designers. I have read several books on graphic design, and this is one of the best.

It became my underarm book, never go alone without it.

Very ease to read, abord every element in a good level, not too basic but no too deep, i'm a graphic designer and always see something in this book.
