Book Reviews of The Elements of Typographic Style

Book Review: Bringhurst's book is wise, concise, and true.
Summary: 5 Stars

Robert Bringhurst's book must be the first word on typography and deserves to be the last. He writes with a humanist's sensitivity to history, a mathematician's devotion to order and number, and an artist's love of beauty. I cannot imagine a better book.
