Excellent textbook for learning the fundamentals of good typography. Very well organized, and written for in a way that is easily understood. Information is very useful and relevant to the design industry today. It will redefine how you will see the world. I would rate the seller 5 stars and I plan to buy from ecampus again in the future.






Thinking with Type: 5 out of 5 stars based on 1 user reviews.

Summary

Thinking with Type is the definitive guide to using typography in visual communication, from the printed page to the computer screen. This edition includes 48 pages of new content and the online companion has been revised to reflect the new material.

Thinking with Type is a type book for everyone: designers, writers, editors, students, and anyone else who works with words. Thinking with Type is extremely informative and written with great integrity which is somewhat rare when it comes to educational books like these. It's also an aesthetic delight, just beautifully designed.
