This book should be on your "Must Read" list. While the subject matter is widely diverse, the basic messages are ones that photographers, artists and designers should read, argue and define for themselves. Style, the "look and feel" of an item -whether it be a toaster, computer or living space carries more power now than ever before.
You will find it a very interesting, and affirming, read.

Sensory appeals are everywhere, and they are intensifying, radically changing how Americans live and work. "
