Handy and full of great ideas

I expected this book would contain some cool ads and lots of boring text about advertising. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it is actually full of awesome examples of ads, pretty much from cover to cover.
It also contains a good How To guide to help eliminate ‘art directors block’, based on methods used by the creators of the ads featured throughout this book.
A very good buy with lots of pages of ‘wow’.
