Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rookledge's International Handbook brings together for the first time in one convenient reference book, brief biographies of over 175 type designers. It provides a fascinating insight into the personalities behind most of the text type-faces used today, and to the circumstances surrounding their design. Starting with the first printed book -- Gutenberg's 42-Line Bible of 1455 -- all the major figures are covered -- designers, punch-cutters, teachers, and manufacturers -- and the story is brought up-to-date by including some of the younger designers, such as Neville Brody and Zuzana Licko as well as established designers like Matthew Carter and Adrian Frutiger. Preceding the alphabetical directory, a short essay outlines the main trends in type design, and two indexes -- by subject and by typeface -- and a glossary of technical terms, complete the work, making it a unique reference book for both professional and student. - Jacket.

Book excerpt: Type is the bridge between writer and reader, between thought and understanding. Type is the message bearer: an art-form that impinges upon every literate being and yet for most of its history it has conformed to the old adage that 'good typography should be invisible', it should not distract with its own personality. It was only at the end of the nineteenth century that designers slowly realised that they could say as much with their lettering as writers could with their words. Form, of course, carries as much meaning as content. Now, anyone within reach of a computer and its limitless database of fonts has the same power. "Type: The Secret History of Letters" tells its story for the first time, treating typography as a hidden measure of our history. From the tempestuous debate about its beginnings in the fifteenth century, to the invention of our most contemporary lettering, Simon Loxley, with the skill of a novelist, tells of the people and events behind our letters. How did Johann Gutenberg, in late 1438, come to think of printing? Does Baskerville have anything to do with Sherlock Holmes? Why did the Nazis re-invent Blackletter? What is a Zapf? "Type" is a guide through the history of our letters and a study of their power. From fashion through propaganda and the development of mass literacy, Loxley shows how typography has changed our world.
