Thinking With Type 2nd Ed: A Critical Guide for Designers, Writers, Editors, & Students

As a newbie to graphics/typography (at least in the sense of having to deal with it in any kind of a professional context), I've found this to be an excellent primer to getting your head in the right place to think about typography and basic layout. It's well written and a lot of the examples are beautifully illustrated, so it serves a double-shift as a prompt if you're stuck for an idea with something you're working on. Essential.

Great book

I love typography and this book allows you to understand all the fundaments of type in a easy and interesting way. I like the layout and size of the book. It also contains little tasks at the end of each chapter as a review of what you have read.

This book is very well written and has alot of information about type and the history of it, there is very little instuction on how to use type, if you are looking for a tutorial type book as I was, this isnt it

Read it cover to cover and am so happy about both the quality of the contents and the passion you can see expressed in every single page. Very clear and well presented.

I bought this book as a step to improve my use of typography on the web. It is very informative and captivating, with brilliant teaching material. Highly Recommended for designers in print and/or web.

To say this book was sold as used. It is in outstanding condition. I will definitely use the seller again

Excellent book. Loved reading this and as a graphic designer despite knowing a lot of the things mentioned this book has given me a much better understanding of everything to do with type.
