### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good coverage of 20th century design history
*by E***F on June 20, 2015*

This well-designed book doesn't add huge amounts of new data to published works on the history of design. Nevertheless, it's a useful supplemental volume, especially for those interested in recent contributions to graphic design history. The author, Caroline Roberts, is an editor of the London-based design magazine (now a website) "Grafik," and the group of visionaries who are profiled reflect a global perspective that includes Asian and South American designers, as well as many from the US and Europe. Also, a few of the "visionaries" are design agencies (like Pentagram) or collectives (like Grapus) rather than individuals.The visionaries are presented chronologically, by birth year, starting with six designers born in the late 1890s (including Piet Zwart, E. McKnight Kauffer, Ladislav Sutnar, and Alexey Brodovitch) and ending with design groups "born" in 1991 (Tomato) and 1992 (M/M Paris).Each visionary person or group is allocated four pages. One page of text summarizes the designer's work and impact; most of these biography pages also include a photo of the designer (something that most other design history books omit). The other three pages display examples of the designer's work, effectively presented on the book's oversized (about 8 x 12 inches) pages. In several instances I was pleased to see materials that aren't the typical samples provided in other design history compilations. Also, each designer's section includes a timeline that highlights some biographical facts and key accomplishments.In her introduction, Ms. Roberts apologizes for the lack of diversity in the "primarily white and middle class" and predominantly male group selected for her "established canon" of important designers. However, she also notes that the graphic design profession is still "in its infancy" and suggests that "future editions of this book will look quite different." Therefore, I hope this book will not be Ms. Roberts' only attempt to catalog important contributors to contemporary design history.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended.
