Editorial Design presents designers with everything they need to know to create their own layouts, connecting editorial design history with current practice to enlighten and inspire the beginner as well as the more experienced designer.

The third edition has been updated to reflect the latest developments in visual journalism, with over one hundred new images showcasing the very best in contemporary editorial design. New chapters have been added dedicated to independent magazines and the seamless integration of print with digital.

This generously illustrated revised edition includes case studies, practical exercises and tips, along with updated profiles of leading designers in the field, who share their expertise and offer invaluable advice. The book design has been refreshed in a larger format for easy legibility of images, captions and text.

Here at Eye towers we are big fans of Cath Caldwell's book Editorial Design... with its range of examples and voices, this is an edition that anybody who designs, edits or publishes should read. Even if you are not as committed to print as the Eye team, there are good discussions here about magazines as branding projects, and the changing shape of online publishing. Students and old hands will find many things to learn from (and be reminded of) in Editorial Design. -- Simon Esterson, Eye art director, London
