"i didnt really read this book but i did try and look at it. i wonder, is there something that i am missing? i hear so much about this man's book jackets and then when i see all of the ones he designed in this book i recognize many of them as being covers that i thought "why would they choose this design b/c it looks cheap?" not my style / taste at all. but it is a nicely laid out book if you were to like his designs so the rating is more for chip kidd's cover designs - not the book itself."
"Very comprehensive source for Chip Kidd designs, created by the master himself. I adore the full-bleed images and the format of the book, and it's a great source of info on the design master himself without being laborious to read. Definitely recommend it."
"good gravy, i love chip kidd. this book is like bookporn; me drooling over every cover, because i am someone who is completely influenced by covers - i cant even help it. i have multiple books-by-the-same-author even if ive never read the author just because they consistently have great covers. i just buy them every time they write a new one, and every time i think - "man, i should read one of them - they might not even be that good", but that is a problem working in the book biz - the seeing and the wanting and the having. chip kidd just happens to make a disproportionate amount of wonderful book covers. and hes funny, too, when talking abouit his process and experiences. i wanted this book for so long, but for some reason it didnt seem like somthing one should buy oneself. so i wishlisted it and now i have it, and i can admire its layout and contents any time i please. volume two please..."
