"What is a Meta-Tag? What kind of measurement is DIN A1? What kind of clearance and documents do you need before using copyrighted material?"
Umm, apparently this book, The Little Know-It-All: Common Sense for Designers, is "First Aid for Clueless Designers" but if truly clued-in designers are supposed to know the answers to all those questions, they must be rare breed...or we're totally clueless here? Usually, when you find yourself in a situation that calls for answers to such questions, it's fire-under-the-ass enough to motivate you to self-educate yourself in a jiffy...but hey, why not brush up on some factoids beforehand, ey?
This book is divided into sections explicating unique vocabulary used in design, printing, typography and photography and includes helpful tips and concise analysis in contiguous areas such as advertising, multimedia, business, copyright and project management. It is structured thematically and equipped with a resourceful index that references numerous sources and links. This indispensable manual is complete with graphics that illustrate and supplement the texts, making it a stimulating reference book for students and newcomers while serving as a trusty companion for professional designers and media professionals alike in their everyday work.
