"This is a great read for people in the design industry because it gives insight into the minds of successful designers and makes the reader realize that they are not alone in their eccentricities."
"This book contains a collection of interviews of graphic designers conducted by fellow designer Debbie Millman. As a designer doing a lot of web developing recently, reading this book is a perfect anodyne for those times when I hit a wall coding. I've met several of the subjects Debbie interviews but my brief intro's and questions only provided a glimpse of who they are. What's nice is that she infuses such shared experience and knowledge into each question that it brings out those responses I was looking for. It's heartening and encouraging to hear "rock star" designers confess their human failings. They just work harder than most."
"This was not only a great read as a graphic designer (finding insight into some fantastically talented creative minds), but also a thoughtful journey into what vocation means...how we are called to some tasks and find pleasure in them. This book made me think a lot about what I love and what I want to do and learn more about and pursue. It was creatively inspiring without being a myopic designer's book--I felt less torn about wanting to do a million things and being interested in everything. I appreciated that the interviewees were humble and human--this is not a pretentious coffee table book, but real conversations between human beings discussing what it means to create and fail and break molds."
