This is a rival to Kleppner's Advertising Procedure: Contemporary, comprehensive and beautifully illustrated. Having read Jay Diamond's older and similar book from 1998, I am impressed to see this updated version which is very smartly aligned with present-day advertising and retail practices. It's a must for any library or even personal book-shelf. * Olga Mitterfellner, Mediadesign Hochschule, Germany *
