The three chapters in this beautifully designed book address three fundamental needs of type users. The first chapter provides a grounding in the origins & evolution of typography, & describes Stone s process in designing his typefaces on, & for, the computer. Chapter 2 offers a wide-ranging series of graphic examples of the ways in which type & design can be used in many contexts. Stone comments on the designs, & Brian Wu, the book s graphic designer, shares his thoughts about the typographic issues. In the final chapter, all 18 members of the Stone type family are exhibited in the style of formal specimens.
