Mike Monteiro’s writing is as ruthless as it is wise. A love letter to web designers everywhere, Design Is a Job catalogs the many and varied mistakes one can make on the path to being successful, and generously warns you away from them. The result is a book that is personal and profound, and which you’ll be waving around to friends and colleagues before you even complete it. “So I wrote you a book,” Mike says. “It has a spine and by the time you’re done reading so will you.”
