Here are two books, both good, both worthy of your consideration.
The first deserves a better review than I can give it. TM: The Untold Stories Behind 29 Classic Logos by Mark Sinclair is a beautiful book, well written and well thought out.
Does the world really need another book on logos? Mark answers that here, but the sucess of this book is in only picking 29. Lots of these logo books cover thousands of them and the quality is dimished with every turn of the page.
This keeps it simple and sticks to the classics. It's a good addition to a design library. In fact, I'd go so far as to say if you only have one book on logos get this one. And then don't buy anymore. You only need one. There are enough logos now.
Next up is the It's Nice That Annual 2014. Always good, this year they've raised their game on the design and it looks great.
They've even done that big hyphenated type thing that you lot love. I can never bring myself to do that, but it looks good here.
Some highlights of the year and some new stuff I hadn't seen before.
Makes me wish I'd answered the questions they sent me...
