Love the art and science behind the different typefaces as discussed in this book. Being a book lover, I am always fond of typography and book binding art. This book is definitely an eye-opener for me. Now I know the choice made for typefaces has a huge impact on the efficacy of communication and readability.

Interesting read, nice to see various font pairings on the page rather than the screen. Good as a reference.
