Peace 100 Ideas

No longer do we have to view peace as a cliche or just something we talk about and never really do. This book is so wonderful. Each spread is a different take on each idea of how to make peace truely happen. I highly recommend this book to not only designers or other creatives, but it should be given as birthday gifts, graduation gifts, or even "just because gifts".

In the design community, we often talk about socially-responsible design, but remain stunted at this stage. The causes are certainly out there, and Peace: 100 Ideas shows how everyone can take matters into their own hands. This book is stunning in numerous ways: a well-designed Chicken Soup for the Soul, a righteous design exercise, a multi-functional portfolio of work, and an inspirational resource for designers and non-designers alike. It's one of my favorite books of the year for so many reasons, and if you're giving the gift of peace and/or want a rousing source of modern design, this book is highly recommended.
