The Complete Graphic Designer is that well-rounded course in graphic  design. It is not an instructional  how to book, nor will it feature a  series of suggested curriculum or problems for designers or students to  solve. Rather, this book will be a concise overview of the many facets  of graphic design, such as communication theory and why it is important;  various types of problems that designers confront on a daily basis; and  the considerations that must be made when trying to solve those visual  problems. In addition, it features prominent designers and design firms  that are renown for work in a certain type of design, and frequent  sidebars or articles that include useful information on graphic  design.

Graphic  design is a fast growing industry with thousands of new designers and  students joining its ranks every year. The explosion of the graphic  design field has resulted in the release of hundreds of new books, with  subjects ranging from logo design to web design, design history to  design criticism; today there are very few subjects related to the  industry that have not been written about in one form or another. While  the wealth of information and resources available to the graphic  designer is extensive, it makes it hard to gain an overall perspective  of graphic design and its practical applications in the field, as the  content and subject matter of most books is very specialized. Design  educators, especially at the collegiate level, have an increasingly  difficult task of teaching a well-rounded course in graphic design, as  they have to pull curriculum ideas from many sources, and require the  students to purchase numerous texts.
