GradwellI am just starting out in graphic design and this book; though interesting; is very hard for me to grasp at this time. I think I will really enjoy doing the instructionals as I learn more about design though. I tried a few of the exercises and (for me) they are hard to do right now.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
