UWA Publishing has just won the Best Designed Book Cover of the Year Award at the 2009 Australian Publishers' Association Book Design Awards in Sydney.
The winning entry Wild Bees: New and Selected Poems by Martin Harrison, sported the simple design of a copper foiled ‘bee' flying across a striking black background.
Meanwhile, Aborigines and Activism: Race, Aborigines and the Coming of the Sixties to Australia by Jennifer Clark, was shortlisted for the Best Designed Reference and Scholarly Book Award.
