Here's a handily tactile edition that stands out for it's design decisions.  Myths of Making is a 6x6” hardcover composed of embossed, foil-stamped, exposed board covers and a woven buckram cloth spine. Inside are 372 vividly illustrated pages – one (mostly) text-accompanied image per page – printed on warm-toned acid-free heavy-weight 140 gsm uncoated paper.  Taken together, these design decisions lend the feel of the raw materials of art-making to works that are themselves about art-making; nice touch.

Myths of Making presents a total of twenty-five "tales and legends" of artists and art making, starting with the anonymous cave artists, through Greek and Chinese myths and legends involving creators, through to tales of renaissance and romantic artists, a detour to Hokusai, and then full on to modernism and pop before concluding with what is likely the oldest continuous art tradition in the world, that of the Australian Aboriginal artists, embodied in the present by John Mawurndjul.

Introduction by Karen Green.  Limited edition of 2500 copies.

Here's a set of seven books i the Unf*ck Your Life seires by DR. Faith G. Harper.  These could make a gift for one person, but there'd be a risk they might think that you're sending them a message that they need a lot of help!  So, maybe better to divvy them up among seven recipients.   It's a thought.
