newspaper designer's handbook
“This is a significant update to a book that has inspired thousands of the top designers in the profession today. The greatly improved Web design chapter will help keep this manual vital for a new generation, as well as all those Harrowerphiles looking to become more multimedia fluent."

“The Newspaper Designer’s Handbook is not just the greatest single source for teaching and learning about publication design, but it continues to evolve with each edition, perfecting and adapting as the industry itself grows and evolves.”

Steve Dorsey, design director, Detroit Free Press

 

“ I wish I had had Tim’s handbook as my guide when I was a student. Informative, reader-friendly, witty -- it should be on every designer’s desk, student or professional.”

Wayne Kamidoi, art director for sports, The New York Times
