The most useful parts of the book include short solid design advice (e.g. typography, page layouts) and a nice overview of the entire process of publishing a book – even helpfully explaining all the various mundane parts of the copyright sections in a book. Nothing is covered in-depth (there’s merely a double page spread on InDesign) but it’s a good starting point.

However, there is little specifically relating to how to organize and usefully, beautifully present the type of content we’re all amassing online. I think that this is the biggest issue: how does one present hundreds of photos, tweets, Facebook comments, blog posts, favourite things, events and more in a print format that we will be able to treasure and reminisce over in years to come?
