Typography. Function, shape and design provides a basic knowledge essential for readers of all levels, from students to professionals. Typography is the notation and mechanical organization of language that is used to make multiple copies, either printed or electronic media. His story begins in 1455 in the West, with the publication of the Gutenberg Bible, called "forty-two lines," although the history of writing and alphabets dates back to thousands of years ago. The book, carefully structured and richly illustrated, introduces the reader to all the key aspects of the subject, from the history of language and writing, until the invention of movable type and the evolution of today's digital systems. It provides an overview of the amazing variety of existing letter and is a practical guide to using the type as a significant element of design in all media.
