Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Inge Gobert and Johan Van Looveren have interviewed 18 internationally renowned designers. All respondents are actively involved in the area of information design, focusing on interactive, editorial and environmental design, data visualisation, as well as signage, typography and cartography. This book includes reflections on these fields of activity and the limitations of information design, working methods, relations between clients and designers, views, dreams and disappointments. Special attention is paid to the question of how future information designers can effectively work in a world where the persistent data access is possible prepared.
