Pictoplasma 2
Paul Rand:

I just picked up the Sagmeister book, which I have heard nothing about good things about. I guess you don't want any manuals or how to books? or just more pictorials to look at?
Paul Rand, Modernist Designer is a great book as mangosnot said, its a lot of commentary from well known designers and critics from around the world on Paul Rand.
I can't say I ever liked those Los/Dos logo's books, just lots of stylistic logos if thats what inspires you, IMO there is not much you can learn when there are no descriptions to tell you what each logo is for. But if you just want pictorials they are ok.
