Description
Reading Images: A Comprehensive Guide to Visual Design This third edition of Reading Images provides a systematic and comprehensive account of the grammar of visual design. The authors examine how images communicate meaning through a wide range of examples, from children's drawings to fine art, photo-journalism, and digital media. The book features new material on diagrams and data visualization, as well as an updated approach to the theory of 'modality'. It also explores how images and their uses have changed since the first edition. With its detailed outline of the 'grammar' of visual design, Reading Images offers a valuable tool-kit for reading images in contemporary multimodal settings. Ideal for students and scholars of communication, linguistics, design studies, media studies, and the arts, this book provides an invaluable resource for understanding the power of visual design in communication.
