For 2d Design Class
This is good for a 2D Design class. It has all the core concepts, explains the colour portion well. Some things aren't very useful, others are. I would recommend getting some other book more "designed" toward whatever you plan on doing. This book covers a broad number of concepts.

Challenging book that teaches you to use your imagination to design. This second edition comes with a CD so you don't need to go online as with later editions.

Was well informed and came quickly.
I like it because it is what I ordered and I bought it for a class and it was cheeper then going through the school so that made me really happy.

It's a good book.
I bought the book two weeks ago. The book is good. Every thing would fine. I'd recommend the book if you are on a budget.
