Graphic designer Miura showcases the tools of the trade for ten occupations, including tailor, watchmaker, and chef. First, a double-page spread displays the tools (with labels), and readers can guess who uses them. The next spread identifies the occupation and shows someone on the job. The varying typefaces, simple shapes, and thoughtful composition make for a handsome volume.
