The Elements of Typographic Style: Version 4.3

By far the best book on typography I have seen or own. (And I own two shelves full.)

Is rightly considered a bible for the subject.

Having read the fine reviews of this book, I took a punt and chose it along with a few other similar titles, to learn about typography in a little more depth. I was not at all expecting to find that this book is in fact a beautifully written manual, not just on typography but arguably also on the deeper philosophy and understanding of the design of our most common form of communication. I am now have regular conversations along the lines, "I'm reading this wonderful book, just beautifully written, I can't put it down. - What's it about? - Typography. - What's that? Erm, well, sometimes it's about the space between letters..... " Just a lovely, lovely book that you will take great pleasure in owning. Thouroughly recommended.

Excited to read the book, since it's the definitive work on typography. The seller took the time to shrink wrap the book to give it extra protection. Really appreciated the attention to detail. Thank you.

If you're interested in the finer points of type and typography you'll end up with a bookshelf full of books. You can save a lot of money by buying this one first. It's rather difficult to find anything wrong with it... OK, so it's not in colour.

A classic book which has been updated in a new edition this year. I had read reviews of the book and, from what I have read so far, the book lives up to them

A complete and in-depth study of typography, combining both theory and logic. A good read, and great for anyone new to type theory. A decent brush-up for those more familiar too.

This is the best typography book I've had in my hands in the short time I have as a typography enthusiast. Edition and attention to detail, from the print quality to the fonts and even the paper makes reading the book a pleasant experience
