3.0 out of 5 stars Coffee table rather than school desk, 5 Sep 2003

By	TheJonesBoy "TheJonesBoy" (London) - See all my reviews

Interesting rather than indispensable - will kickstart an interest in grids and their uses but it's not the only book you'll ever need if you want to really get it together with teh idea of grids and their place in most if not all design work. A bit too desperate to appear groovy for it's own good but decent enough if you don't own any other "grid" books.

5.0 out of 5 stars gridtastic!, 30 Nov 2002

By A Customer

who says design books have to be dull? this book takes the most anal of design fetishes - grids - and makes them interesting, mainly by putting them in a broader cultural context and then asking those who actually use them what they're all about. buy one for all your design mad friends now
