 Book covers wide range of topics: from the informative function of images to history of page layout. All of them are orbiting around the central term, model, visual representation of abstract idea. Book contains over 150 illustrations drawn by Jakub Woynarowski. Thanks to collaboration with VNLab, I was able to design second, revised edition, available online.
