Good text for students I use this book to teach page design to my high school journalism and yearbook students. Middle school students could also benefit from this book. However, it is not limited to 6-12 education. Any person who needs to know about layout would be well served by this book.Furthermore, the resources available on the CD-ROM are outstanding. Chapter quizzes, self tests, photo cropping examples, crossword puzzles, and more really make this book stand out. The disc also links to the McGraw-Hill website which offers even more content to supplement the book.Overall, a terrific resource for journalists, designers,. "Five Stars" according to Jason Prescott. Awesome!!. "entertaining and factual" according to Icemom. I love this book. I teach high school journalism and I use it all of the time as a resource for page designers. The chapters have a fun, lively voice and the examples are effective.My students love Harrower, too. When I tell them to look something up in the Harrower book, no one complains.I've even bought this book as a gift for graduating seniors!
