Gerard Unger: Theory of Type Design

This isn’t a book of theory put to practice. It’s practice put to theory. And in 240 pages Gerard Unger lays out a comprehensive theory of type design. No step-by-steps. No copy-and-paste. This is a thinking designer’s philosophy of space, shapes, and history. It’s not a book for everyone. It’s for people who care and care to think critically about what we do.
