About the book

'Drenched in vivid colours, snappy and glamorous in its design, deploying the sharpest or most exotic images, the overall impression the book gives is of the glittering treasure chest.' Sydney Morning Herald. 'Sumptuously illustrated ... The World of the Book could not be easily bettered.' Canberra Times. 'This authoritatively written and lavishly illustrated work includes religious texts, great travel tomes, books that changed the world, typography and cover design and comics. It's a book for browsing and admiring as much as for reading.' Sun Herald --Book Jacket.
