Twentieth-Century Type, New and Revised Edition

The quality is good.

This type book wasn't as helpful as the others (solely in my opinion as a graphic design student). The teacher required this book for the semester yet it was hardly used and I never found myself resorting back to much information this book provided like I have other type books I have purchased previously. Not a fail but not a 5 star.

Just as described and fast shipping

I got this book for a Typography 1 class. We haven't really used it yet, but I'm only into my first week of class.

This book is one of my favorites as far as type books. It is a great reference and the layout is easy to navigate.

This is a great book containing a very good overview of the 20th century changes in typography. It covers everything from pre-art nouveau to postmodernism. A good resource for any design or typography library. My only complaint is that Blackwell waxes a bit too poetic on 1990's postmodernism. Also, they used a tight-fitting Helvetica for the body copy - so reading it takes some effort.This is certainly worth having in your collection.

Awesome +10000000'Love it :)

Brilliant book, interesting if you’re interesting in font, printing ad typography

Another exhibit of "encyclopedic" approach. Well put, interesting and still has some relevancy.
