This was a really fascinating read. I'd regrettably never done much digging into the history of graphic design, and this book introduces that topic in a really engaging format. I pretty much devoured it in a couple days. It's also a beautifully designed book in and of itself, very inspirational and I'm sure I'll be going back to it again and again.

Thoughtful photographs enliven gentle, rambling essays. Sparkling ideas and just right phrases tipped me with surprise just when I thought, "This is a comfy read."

'Make peace with yourself once and for all: Love is not a meritocracy."

"Forgive yourself. Soon, you will discover that self-acceptance and tolerance do not have to be hard work."

"Imagine a different world, one in which people do not spend an inordinate amount of energy fuming against their fate each time they make a mistake. A world in which one takes for granted that if things can go wrong, they probably will. It would be so civilized. Folks would bump into furniture, miss deadlines, get lost on the way to the airport, forget to return phone calls, and show up at parties a day early k without getting unduly annoyed with themselves."

A brief, and engaging "way to make peace with yourself." I've ordered a copy of my own.

Sweet and easy book to read. Lots of common sense but a good reminder to take care or our minds and bodies.

Meandering little essays on how to enjoy the passage of time. I liked it.
