Thinking with type

Our all-time best selling book is now available in a revised and expanded second edition. Thinking with Type is the definitive guide to using typography in visual communication, from the printed page to the computer screen. This revised edition includes forty-eight pages of new content, including the latest information on style sheets for print and the web, the use of ornaments and captions, lining and non-lining numerals, the use of small caps and enlarged capitals, as well as information on captions, font licensing, mixing typefaces, and hand lettering. Throughout the book, visual examples show how to be inventive within systems of typographic form--what the rules are and how to break them. Thinking with Type is a type book for everyone: designers, writers, editors, students, and anyone else who works with words. The popular companion website to Thinking with Type (www.thinkingwithtype.com.) has been revised to reflect the new material in this second edition.

  • "El libro está dividido en tres secciones: letra, texto y retícula. Partiendo de la unidad básica que es la letra, aborda después las particularidades de la organización de las palabras en cuerpos de texto coherentes y sistemas flexibles. Los proyectos de muestra y los ejercicios prácticos que se incluyen, explican no solo cómo se estructura la tipografía, sino por qué se hace así, con la intención de desvelar las bases funcionales y culturales que residen tras las convenciones del diseño."@es
  • "Este no es un libro sobre fuentes. Es un libro sobre cómo utilizarlas. Este libro trata de pensar con la tipografía. La tipografía es una herramienta con la que podemos dotar al lenguaje de un cuerpo físico, dar una forma concreta al contenido y posibilitar el flujo social de mensajes. Este libro pretende hablar con los lectores y escritores, diseñadores y editores, profesores y estudiantes cuyo trabajo esté relacionado con la impredecible vida de la palabra escrita. Desde la rigidez que imponía el trabajo con los tipos de imprenta físicos, de metal o madera, hasta la flexibilidad que ofrece el medio digital, el texto ha evolucionado desde un cuerpo cerrado y estable hacia un ecosistema fluido y abierto cuyos atributos, grano, color, densidad y silueta, pueden ajustarse de maneras infinitas. Pensar con tipos aborda las cuestiones culturales y teóricas que alimentan el diseño tipográfico."@es
