Neil Leonard has quietly and thoughtfully managed to write a book that is less strident than its title suggests by carefully assimilating a lot of practical wisdom that many design tutors would hope to impart to their students before embarking on a professional career in graphic design ... In summary, Becoming a Successful Graphic Designer is a solid and valuable edition to the any professional practice reading list. Art, Design & Communication in Higher Education
