		<description><![CDATA[Media reportage has been saturated this year by a dialogue concerned almost exclusively with ameliorating the ‘problem of knife crime’ in modern Britain. This discussion, and its intrinsic dialectic between rehabilitative and incapacitatory responses, has proliferated largely unquestioned amongst academics and journalistic commentators alike.

		<description><![CDATA[An administrative and organisational philosophy to which I closely align myself is that of decentralisation. I think it almost without question that the efficacy of any agency can be vastly improved should the authority for decision-making be delegated to the lower tiers of an institution’s hierarchy.

Thinking of China still evokes imagery of old: a wasteful and disorganised agrarian economy and bucolic society. Yet the failure of The Great Leap Forward to produce an industrialised communist society in the 1950s triggered riots and [...]]]></description>

After waiting some while for it to be delivered from New York City, this weekend I opened with much excitement Nicholas Felton&#8217;s Personal Annual Report 2007. This constitutes the first piece of professional design work I have ever purchased and it falls squarely within the area of print design I love the most: infographics.
