Book Reviews of Thinking with Type: A Critical Guide for Designers, Writers, Editors, & Students (Design Briefs)

Book Review: Solid concepts
Summary: 4 Stars

This is one of only a few type books that I have read and was one of the most enjoyable. The concepts of typography are presented in an easy to follow flow and language that anyone can understand while not 'dumbing down' typography to a point that designers won't enjoy the book.
