As beautiful and useful as the clock in our kitchen

So precise... so expressive... We learn something new each time we read/watch this book. From food processor to expresso machine many usual tools are simply explained. Pictures style, overall layout of the book were revolutionary in 1991 when this book was first published. They paved the way to internet web pages layout. MSN web pages were directly inspired by this DK collection. Object series from Photodisc publisher helped a lot too. This book belongs to the history of web design even if it has theorically nothing to do with the internet...
