[Lloyd Martin · Rating 2 out of 5]

In my opinion, this book is already a little outdated. The examples given by these authors are no longer relevant, in my opinion. What current books on design and fonts can you recommend to me?

Very educational, and accurate reading.

Doyald Young was a master of the letterform. I still refer to this book in my visual identity and lettering endeavors.
