A delightfully inquisitive tour that explores the rich history and the subtle powers of fonts.

Fonts surround us every day, on street signs and buildings, on movie posters and books, and on just about every product that we buy. But where do fonts come from and why do we need so many? Who is behind the businesslike subtlety of Times New Roman, the cool detachment of Arial, or the maddening lightness of Comic Sans (and the movement to ban it)? Simon Garfield embarks on a mission to answer these questions and more, and reveal what may be the very best and worst fonts in the world.

Typefaces are now 560 years old, but we barely knew their names until about twenty years ago, when the pull-down font menus on our first computers made us all the gods of type. Beginning in the early days of Gutenberg and ending with the most adventurous digital fonts, Garfield unravels our age old obsession with the way our words look. Just My Type investigates a range of modern mysteries, including how Helvetica took over the world, what inspires the seemingly ubiquitous use of Trajan on bad movie posters, and what makes a font look presidential, male or female, American, British, German, or Jewish. From the typeface of Beatlemania to the graphic vision of the Obama campaign, fonts can signal a musical revolution or the rise of an American president. This book is a must-read for the design conscious that will forever change the way you look at the printed word.

是通过《字谈字畅》认识的这本书和译者的，虽然之前也听闻过字节社和TIB（Type is Beautiful），但是对于字体的认识停留在衬线和非衬线和各个字体名字还有声名在外的Helvetica等几个西文字体。我想这可能也和中文的语境有关，但是无知并不能怪环境。就像我们小时候最开始学一...

负责任并不是非得通过“翻译过程是多么多么苦逼”的面貌展现出来。。。轻松、幽默、自嘲、谦逊[GSS：有时是过于谦逊了。。。]鼓励读者拜读原著。。。本身就是负责任的另一种表现。 [GSS：虽然猜想这本书的翻译过程，应该也有苦逼的一面。。。XP] 结合翻译者的非专业翻译...
