The issue 12 of Book Apart series, this work has been translated into Persian by Laila Hossein-Nejad. Meshki (Black) Publishing in Tehran has released 'You're My Favorite Client' in 170 pages.

Whether you're a designer or not, you make design decisions every day. Successful design projects require equal participation from both the client and the design team.

Yet, for most people who buy design, the process remains a mystery. In his follow-up to 'Design Is a Job', Mike Monteiro demystifies the design process and helps you prepare for your role.

Ensure you're asking the right questions, giving effective feedback, and hiring designers who will challenge you to make your product the best it can be.

Monteiro is the co-founder and design director of Mule Design in San Francisco. He prefers that designers have strong spines. Mike writes and speaks frequently about the craft, ethics, and business of design.

He loves design so much he wrote three books on the topic, 'Design is a Job', 'You’re My Favorite Client' (both available from A Book Apart) and 'Ruined by Design'.

He received the 2014 Net award for Conference Talk of the Year for his inspirational polemic on responsibility, “How Designers Destroyed the World.”
