Reviews
So many works on advertising communications are either 'How to' books written by academics who never have done it or 'And then I wrote books' by geezers celebrating their accomplishments. The Bridge is neither. It is both entertaining and enlightening. Anyone who creates or is exposed to advertising, marketing and design will find it a great 'read' -- Walter Bregman ""Former President International Playtex, Former President Norman, Craig and Kummel Advertising, author of ""Spray the Bear - Reminiscences from the Golden Age of Advertising""""
