Rating:  Summary: Graphic Design for 21st Century Desktop Publishers Review: This semester I taught a class of Office Administration students using this resource book. The chapters were clearly understandable and each transitioned into the next in an effective manner. The information allows the instructor to introduce practical application projects to reinforce knowledge gained from each chapter. More project ideas could be suggested with some samples of "good" submitted projects. A few chapters are very lengthy and could be split into two chapters. It was very easy to teach from, and the students liked the book. Several said they would like to keep it as reference material.
