Though digital tools may have allowed designers new power and flexibility, typography remains the bedrock of good graphics, and one of the most exciting areas of experimentation. Despite the myriad collections of type design produced, no one has before attempted a thematic and critical overview of digital typography and the oft-unpublished radical works that lead to these designs. This book is extensively illustrated with the work of dozens of typographers from around the world, and illuminates the rich history of digital typography from its physical properties and production methods, through the development of typographic styles, to the full diversity of its uses in print, architecture, film, TV, and other media.

This review is from: Type Design: Radical Innovations and Experimentation (Hardcover)
This book is a good resource on typographic experimentation, with well-sized images that are clear and in-focus and it is a welcome addition to my bookshelf.It is not, however, a book about type design.

I ordered several books at once, all estimating the same delivery time frame, and this book arrived waaaaaay before the other sellers'. Very impressive. And if it matters this book was the largest, and heaviest, of the lot.
