This is not really mac related (except for the fact that if your doing graphic design you are probably using a mac), but anyone interested in the visual communication of ideas should check out Edward Tufte's latest work. We're big fans. 12/10/2004

Press Release: THE CULT OF MAC SELLS OUT FIRST RUN OF 10,000
December 7, 2004, San Francisco - The Cult of Mac, a celebration of Mac users' loyalty and obsession, by Wired News writer Leander Kahney arrived in stores only three weeks ago, yet it has already sold out its first printing of 10,000 copies, according to publisher No Starch Press. A second printing of 10,000 copies is underway, and the book is expected to continue flying off shelves, as the holiday shopping season continues and with the Macworld Expo scheduled for mid-January 2005. The book has been receiving glowing reviews for its beautiful design and layout, as well as its entertaining content. The Cult of Mac explores the lengths to which people will go to personalize their hardware and adopt a Mac-centric lifestyle, as documented in 280 full-color pages and more than 500 original photos. It's full of people doing innovative, bizarre and artistic things with their computers, such as one user who makes furniture out of cardboard Mac boxes and many who express their love with tattoos, as well as interesting tidbits and trivia about the company, its history and its personalities. Book sales for The Cult of Mac have also been fueled by several recent radio and TV appearances by author Leander Kahney, as well as reviews in print and online publications, including the cover story of Macworld UK's special Macworld Expo issue. "We expected The Cult of Mac to be a big seller. It's been generating buzz and excitement ever since we announced that the book was in development," said No Starch Press founder Bill Pollock. "Plus, with the popularity Leander's Cult of Mac blog on Wired News, it's no surprise to us that the book has found a vast audience."
