Penguin non fiction book cover design - Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt & Stephen J. Dubner
http://www.penguin.co.uk/static/cs/uk/0/minisites/penguindesignaward/adult_non_fiction_prizes.php

The cover design needs to reflect that this is a fresh, witty and illuminating book which looks at the big – and the not so big – questions of life in an original and entertaining way. It needs to hint at the very broad range of topics the book covers. It needs to convey that the Freakonomics way of seeing the world is at the heart of everything we see and do – these are the subjects that bedevil us daily: from parenting to crime, sport to politics, fat to cheating, fear to traffic jams. This book asks provocative and profound questions about human motivation and contemporary living and reaches some astonishing conclusions. The cover is the ‘way in’ to how people will change the way they see the world.

Penguin fiction book cover design - Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit by Jeanette Winterson
