Editorial Design, the book
Editorial Design is the snappy title of a recent book by design journalist Yolanda Zappaterra. It’s about as complete an introduction to magazines and newspaper design as you’ll find, with plenty of history and archive pictures alongside modern examples and interviews and quotes from the great and good in publication design, including, ahem, me.
Aimed at the student market, it stretches itself across many different purposes – reference book, how-to guide, source book – and is consequentially a bit thin on detail sometimes, but manages do introduce all the necessary subjects. Recommended for anyone wanting to learn the basics.
Published in the UK by Laurence King as part of their Portfolio series.
