Information Design: A Desk Reference
Upon initial flip through, this book seemed like it might have some good info on the subject of information design. Once I actually started reading it I realized that it is a rudimentary text written for office workers and secretaries who simply want to be better at doing these things, but still do not really have any design training/background already. That said, if you are a professional designer, you can probably skip this, though it is a breeze to skim through the 300 pages and pick up a few new kernels of insight. If you just want to know a little more about what makes a better invoice table or survey, then you might like to flip through this to pick up some more info. For me, I could have skipped it, but I always have to finish books that I start, even if it is painful.
