sal,

as someone who has struggled with authors and editors over layout and
typographical issues - about which they frequently know little or nothing
but nonetheless feel qualified to make demands - i concur that, while
unscrupulous designers may occasionally 'overdo' it, quite often bad book
design is oft times the work of those who know nothing about it: writers,
editors, even publishers.

talk about slings and arrows...
