Product Description
Business Cards: The Art of Saying Hello is the ultimate business card book, bringing together the best examples of cards created by designers around the world. Business cards are a major design challenge; creating successful cards is all about the clever use of space; but just a little space. And that’s not all. A design needs to make a splash, stand out from the crowd or announce you as part of a team; and how do you solve the problem of creating a universally understood message while catering to cultural differences and multiple languages? Materials are also important; not all cards are machine printed, and this book features cards on punched metal, stitched fabric, cards with heat-sealed cut-outs, or made from recycled subway tickets, plus clever examples of best-practice using “make-your-own” business-card machines.
Over 300 cards are grouped into sections reflecting different design approaches: Typography, Photography, Materials, Illustration and Found Objects. Proving just how inventive you can be with a limited space, this book is a rich source of ideas and inspiration both for designers and anyone wishing to make a statement with their business card.

If you're looking for edgy, creative, personalized cards, then buy this book.
A little too "Creative" for me 
This book was chock full of sketchy, clubby cards, but not really anything of substance. if you're looking for a really good reference guide to solid design, this isn't the book for you. Being an illustrator and Graphic Deisigner i thougth some of the concepts were good. including a guy who printed 2 color stickers out of his inkjet printer onto labels to stick them on his plain card (unique way of creating multiple cards from one shell right?). but on the whole they weren't really the cool, solid design work i was expecting.
