Books by Josh Clark: Best iPhone Apps, iWork ’09, and Big Medium
I write books to help creative people understand the technologies that can make their work easier, more beautiful, and more all-around awesome.
My books, like the software I build, aim to help you create gorgeous documents and websites, vehicles worthy of your words and ideas. As a guy who makes software for creative people, I care about technology’s role in our lives, about the tools that we use to do our everyday work. I know how powerful these tools can be, but also about how frustrating they often are to newcomers. The goal of my books is to help you get the most out of the technologies I write about, so that you not only master them, but you also enjoy the process along the way.
