"an accessible and richly illustrated guide to the most influential and highly politicised imagery of the 21st century. Sounds good to me." —Huffington Post"a tremendous amount of material from around the world since 9/11. All of it is carefully and accurately contextualised." —Eye"art and graphic design is driving social and political change in the 21st century [Visual Impact] uncovers common themes about use of technology and the role of the designer. ...the consumer now has to pick through a barrage of images and content to work out what is relevant and important – something this new book does in style. ...There's also a fascinating and very timely study of protest posters and artwork documenting the ongoing conflict in Syria." —Design Week"visual protest continues to be a vital part of any social movement... [McQuiston] makes an excellent case that trained and dedicated designers, artists and photographers are continuing to produce visual dissent of great inventiveness and power. ...an immensely thorough selection of international projects." —Creative Review
