"[Horst Moser] did what I wish I had done: He offered his extensive collection of contemporary magazines to readers in the form of a book. Written to appeal to designers as well as non-designers-editors, entrepreneurs, marketers- Surprise Me is not encumbered with insider's jargon. His thorough understanding of the process, combined with intriguing juxtapositions of layouts, no-nonsense comments, and original insight make for an entertaining read-as surprising fresh as the subject matter he is presenting." (From the introduction by Véronique Vienne).
