*by X***D on 6 January 2024*

El libro es excelente. Es una pieza fundamental que debe estar en tu biblioteca si te dedicas a cualquier área relacionada con el diseño gráfico. El autor hace una recopilación de las tipografías más importantes a lo largo de la historia, las define y las relaciona entre ellas. Aprenderás mucho acerca de los tipos de letras y sus familias, pero además te resultará muy útil para decidir qué tipo de letra encaja mejor en este proyecto que tienes entre manos. La encuadernación también merece una mención por su magnífica calidad, lo mismo que ocurre con la impresión y la calidad del papel. Por lo que respecta al envío del libro, lamentablemente, hay que destacar lo descuidado que ha sido. Como consecuencia de un embalaje negligente, el libro ha llegado marcado en su portada y manchado en la parte inferior de las páginas. Afortunadamente, el contenido está indemne.
