Letter From the Editor

Dear Colleague:

Our Mission to put the inspiration, creativity and solid design fundamentals back into design textbooks continues to unfold with the much-anticipated third edition of Robin Landa's Graphic Design Solutions.  Every page justifies its reputation as one of the most highly acclaimed design texts in the world, with contributions from Nick Law, Stefan Sagmeister, Luba Lukova, and many more.

Our Design Exploration Series continues to evolve into what we think is the market's most well-rounded and complete design series.  New in 2006:  books on Publication Design, Package Design, Character Design, Digital Workflow, Sound Design, and DVD Authoring.  Plus new editions of software books written to the latest releases from Adobe, Macromedia, Quark, Alias/Wavefront, Autodesk/Discreet, and Maxon.  All are written by designer-educators in the front lines of today's design classroom.

As our publishing program grows, so does the number of passionate supporters who share our vision.  Many talented instructors and professionals have not only become loyal friends and customers, but have also joined our author and manuscript reviewer teams.  If you're interested in becoming part of our publishing program and helping to make today's students the great designers of tomorrow - we'd love to hear from you!

Best wishes,

Jim Gish
