Anyone know any decent book review websites where I can see some thought one Design type books in particular?

Thanks

EDIT: Or does anyone recommend any books?
 
Berry made a list iirc but can't remember where he did that, might be worth a search on berry's posts
 
Yeah I remember that post, I just went through Berry's posts just then and couldnt see it. Maybe it was Greg that posted? or Chris maybe..I remember it was one of the more active users..
 
After a quick search for Recommended Books the 2nd of 3 links had this :p :cool:

Reviews as in peoples opinions on something. anyone can have a top 10 list of books!
I need likes and dislikes, thoughts.. ya know.

Not just, "i like this book. buy it" lol :p
 
that list was composed by Berry, I'm sure the list only has decent books. As to reviews, amazon is usually pretty good in my view :p
 
When is the Smashing Magazine going to be out? I know you can pre-order it now, but when is it actually going to be distributed?
Does anybody know?
 
Your Smashing Book: Update

Starts shipping 23rd Nov, ditto on the pre-order, hope it's worth it!

I'm also waiting for Mark Boulton's new book too :( 'Designing Grid systems for the Web' oh and I have David Airey's Logo Design Love on pre-order. I love my books :(

I have some of the books on Berry's list and they're great, going to add one or two from it on to my Christmas Wish List me thinks :)
