It’s interesting to see Simon Garfield’s Just My Type selling so well. The book is a history of fonts from the days of Gutenberg to the present era of corporate logos aplenty. Garfield tackles the ‘what your font selection says about you’ theme, and offers lots of anecdotes and historical background. Typefaces are interesting… to me at least.
