Circle Press was, as its own website states, "born out of inadvertency". Still in production, Circle Press is at the forefront of design and technique in book production, marrying the word to the image in the most imaginative of ways.

New Haven: Yale Center for British Art, is the perfect navigation tool. To mark the press's 30th anniversary in 1996, and to accompany the retrospective exhibition of Circle Press work that took place then, Cathy Courtney compiled "The Looking Book: a pocket history of Circle Press 1967-96: London: Circle Press. http://shop.circlepress.com/products/the-looking-book
