The Fundamentals of Typography approaches the subject in such a way that the book can be used for a student just getting introduced to the idea of typography, yet has enough depth for the more advanced student. The unique typographic examples, combined with exercises at the end of the chapter that I actually want to assign to my students, makes this book my choice for the classroom. The new edition's updated interview-based case studies present contemporary cases that are inspiration for class projects., As a design teacher and typeface designer I've come across many great books on Typography. The Fundamentals of Typography is definitely among them, but it takes a step beyond. It covers in one book what I'd typically need many for. It has all the essential content for a basic type course while offering a wealth of information for advanced learners. It is rich in history and spans many cultures and alphabets. Learners can connect with the subject and gain contextual awareness through case studies, examples, and exercises with well-structured methods. I'm thrilled to find comprehensive information on optical, technical, and ethical dimensions all in one place. It's a must-have for any student and designer's bookshelf

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
