Title: Get out your magnifying glass
Review: Annual awards recipients' biographical material as always appetizing and interesting. However, the following sections depicting current work focus on first-person design-incantations rather than the work. Due to smaller format (reduced dimensions) it's difficult to see the work examples and all nuance is for the most part completely lost.A surprising amount of lengthy unilluminating explanatory text.A very odd section attempting to illustrate very simple survey results in a bizarrely complex manner.I can't use this book as a design reference as I do with previous AIGA annuals, so I'm going through the bother of returning it.
