Summary: Timeless
Comment: A beautifully structured and clearly written book about high-level concepts of typography and the finest nuances as well. My design students buy this because it is required for my class then soon discover it is a pleasure to read. They come to class excited about the readings and delve beyond what is required. I am grateful for such passion as Bringhurst brings to this field and shares poetically with us all.
