Summary: Pretty, but not technical
Comment: Anyone who is looking for a collection of beautiful magazine pages and spreads might give this 5 stars, but I was hoping that more would be delivered in fulfillment of the subtitle: "Secrets for Successful Magazine Design."
Most of the images are of opening pages/spreads of articles or departments; I noticed no complete layouts, only a few continued pages and only one page that had to accomodate fractional ads. Thus, the emphasis was on art, more than on technique.
Two pages under the title, "Eleven Steps to a Successful Redesign," were heavy on "what-to" rather than "how-to." One of the "steps" is: "Get your inside designers involved." Alright! But folks like me, who has often been able to look in the mirror and say, "Good morning editor, publisher, designer, production manager," that is a beautiful dream.
In short, if you know magazine design and want to consider the artistic approaches of others, this is a book for you. If you are new to magazine design and want to learn its "secrets," you won't discover many here.
