there are numerous pictures shown where possible, to accompany the many examples of design plagiarism, nostalgia and styles discussed in the book.

all in all, an easy and helpful read, as the chapters break up the text, and examples, nicely into their subject matter. And even though the book is *very* informative and concise, providing many 'case studies', I found that i never lost interest in the style of writing, or subject matter.

highly recommended, for anyone who is a (aspiring) designer.

designers might also want to check out 'Design History and the History of Design' by J.A. Walker - also an interesting read, more focusing on the field of design history, and its (mis)interpretations of the past.
