4.0 out of 5 stars A very long book, 4 Feb 2011
I bought this book for my university project as it was recommened. However it's a big book with so much in that I got bit sick of having to search for what I wanted. But it does hold a lot of useful information for those who study Graphics or Advertising!

5.0 out of 5 stars A standard work?, 10 Nov 2005
By 
The issue of branding and graphic design has been long overlooked. For many brand is merely that; a logo or graphic mark, a colourful shorthand for the corporate image. In reality brand bites deep into the psyche of the business, and is the rallying point for strategic positioning and company culture. This book is the first to examine the gulf between the image of the brand and the values behind it, and makes the case eloquently for both elements of branding to be conceived within the same strategic process.

Designers need to understand the full imnpact of the treatment and usage of the graphical marks that they develop and strategists need to realise the invaluable role that the design team can make to the process of brand evolution and renewal. Melissa Davis introduces controversy into the arena, the pressures on corporate brand development and the emerging issues of social responsibility that are rapidly being engineered into the brand DNA by the best in the field. Highly recommended read with great examples!
