Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. In the What You Need to Know series, we look at technology in a personal way: how real people get something done and how they think about issues. The covers of the series reflect this personal, immediate approach to the subject. Inside the books, illustra tions of the speakers in the sidebars give faces to those who have shared their experiences. ... Edie Freedman designed the cover of this book, using an illustration by David White, in the style of 19th-century engravings. The cover layout was produced with Quark XPress 3.3 using the ITC Garamond and Futura fonts. The inside layout was designed by Nancy Priest and implemented in FrameMaker 5.0 by Mike Sierra. The text and heading fonts are in the ITC Garamond and Garamond Condensed families. The sidebar text and headings are set in the Gill Sans font. The portraits were illustrated by Leslie Evans.
