Yes, Judge a Book By Its Cover

Is it shallow to judge a book by its cover? There are lots of good reasons - and not all of them have to do with looks. We speak with legendary Jurassic Park cover designer Chip Kidd about fitting an entire story into a single image, “Caustic Cover Critic” James Morrison about creating art that sells, and hear about the importance of reading and telling stories from a different perspective from designer and founder of Black and Brown Book Designers Dominique Jones and illustrator Lisa Perrin.    To find blogs and images related to each episode, go to domestika.org/podcasts.
