"The Geometry of Type" explores 100 traditional and modern typefaces in loving detail, with a full spread devoted to each entry. Characters from each typeface are enlarged and annotated to reveal key features, anatomical details, and the finer, often-overlooked elements of type design, which shows how these attributes affect mood and readability. Sidebar information lists the designer and foundry, the year of release and the different weights and styles available, while feature boxes explain the origins and best uses for each typeface, such as whether it is suitable for running text or as a display font for headlines. To help the reader spot each typeface in the wider world, the full character set is shown, and the best letters for identification are highlighted. This beautiful and highly practical work of reference for font spotters, designers and users is a close-up celebration of typefaces and great type design.

評分非常詳細的大部頭!
評分談不上什麼真正的geometry,不是教你涉及字體,就是介紹字體怎麼分類,相互之間的細微區彆和各自的特徵在哪裏,用最傻瓜的方式箭頭文字給你指齣來,一頁一個字體,可以講得更深入,因為數字化的時代字體萬萬韆,兩種相似字體之間那真是極其相似,往往隻是將某一處特徵混入另一類字體,類型細分的竅門介紹一下更好。不過已然不錯瞭,一則知道瞭哪些是基本的字體,二則可以簡單指認部分字體,並且將其簡單歸類。
評分挺厚的一本hardcover書籍。。。慢慢看。
