There are interviews and spotlight on the artists, revealing their inspiration and techniques, and of course a showcase of their fabulous work.

The only downside is the weak spine, which isn't very durable.

Nice book recommended to those into creative illustration and design. Great price too, at £14.99 equivalent.
