Caracteristici
Cutting-edge and well-established examples are used throughout the book to illustrate the theoretical points being made and exploring how designers use semiotics in their own work. Examples include Duchamp's Fountain and Magritte's The Betrayal of Images, through to contemporary examples like a periodic table of social issues, international street signs, a newspaper illustration about violence against women and a magazine cover summarising the Prime Minister by just showing his hair - plus many more
