"So into this vacuum rushes the bullshit: theories about the symbolic qualities of colors or typefaces; unprovable claims about the historical inevitability of certain shapes, fanciful forced marriages of arbitrary design elements to hard-headed business goals."
Please also read the discussion below the article between Bierut and fellow writer Rick Poynor because this is a refutation and further explanation.
