The NYTimes has a great roundup of 5 books by Steven Heller (no, not 5 by him, 5 rounded up by him)--from Barnbrook Bible: The Graphic Design of Jonathan Barnbrook, to Bears. The second in the list, Vignelli: From A to Z, will be a favorite for those of us who've spent waaaay too many evenings debating whether the "new" New York City subway map is worse than the old one. And the fact that we even call it the new one tells you just about everything you need to know right there. All beautifully written (again, the roundup), natch.
