Book Covers
I was reading somebodys GLOG the other day and they wrote a blog about book covers. I made a comment about it.. and since then I have found some interesting book covers by Penguin called 'Great Ideas' designed by David Pearson and Phil Baines and some others. A really nice uncoated stock, lovely rich blues and reds and some cracking debossing. They feel nice in the hand.
So... Whoever you are... I hope that you find this article because it might help with your dissertation!

I am not sure if it was my blog or someone elses that you read the other day but either way I am glad i'm not the only one that is beginning to notice this underdeveloped area of design.
I really like the look of these but get the feeling from what you said a photos don't really do the covers justice, I will have to go hunting in a book shop. I had been looking mainly the design of covers and less of the materials used, thank you, you have given me something else to investigate.
