I am such a huge fan of this book. It is a definite must-read for anyone starting in design, especially those who are heading out into the freelance world. The stuff you see in here won't be stuff you are taught in school. It's real world stuff that Shaughnessy has come across through years of success and failures. So, so good.

I'd go so far as to say hands down, the best book I own.

"There should be a minimal amount of furniture (rules, boxes, dots and other guiderails for traveling through typographic space) and a maximum amount of information." - on table layout
