Essays explore: The physical, visual, cognitive, and cultural meanings of messages created by communication, How interpretation plays a fundamental role in the creation of meaning, Living spaces as communication spaces, The space of language and graphics, Avoiding miscommunication in the public sphere, Designing effective communications and the Internet. This book is essential reading for all graphic and communication designers who care about how their message is received. Book jacket.
