Negative Positive
Title: Less than 20% of this 200+ page book is text
Review: I heard of Karlssonwilker when they first started and was very impressed with the work they produced. Unfortunately this book is not one of them.If I were looking for a book that showcased their work, I would have liked it. However, I was looking for tips and advice on how to run a design firm, and for that I was very disappointed.Of the 200+ pages in this book, less than 20% is text--the rest is just pictures of their work.And their main advice seems to be, "have the right girlfriend" as was shown many times when they nearly went bankrupt---as in, luckily one of the founder's girlfriend threw some jobs their way.I did get some amusement from this book but I definitely felt I wasted my money. So try to buy it used, or borrow it.(If you want a real book on starting a design firm, get "The Business Side of Creativity")
