Noel is quite critical of David's publication for not providing enough social context. I try to go into bat for David by suggesting that because he's a designer he deals with raw history in a very different sort of way. I'm not sure I articulate that very well, but for anyone who's interested TNG #6 is out very soon. Launch at S/F on the 8th of Sept.

I found it to be a great book that drew long overdue attention to a New Zealand graphic design icon. The overall design and production values of the book are of a high quality and warrant the shelf price of $140. It's great to see a graphic design book celebrating one of our own.

But due to the limited run the price is relatively high. You can pick up 'National Grid' 4 which has a decent feature on Joseph Churchward's work from endemicworld.com Great book have a look every time I go to Gordon Harris.
