About This Item
Twenty-five chapters cover subjects such as how and why typefaces are different, fifteen great inventions behind typefaces, classifying type, choosing type, and the practical problems of identifying type plus what to do when you have become familiar with type. This work is a great place to begin when one wants to start studying the printed word and working with printing and type.
Lieberman also includes informative and interesting historical information covering the more specific aspects of the printed word in "The 15 Great Inventions Behind Our Typefaces," which describe the inventions of the book, small letters, silent reading, printing, typefaces, roman type, true type design, numbers, mechanized type production, the type family, evocative printing, the Typorama, cold type, and the possible reinvention of the alphabet.
