Type Tips is a resource for non-designers or aspiring designers who are unfamiliar with typographic concepts. Topics include: basic terminology, choosing type, using type, and a brief introduction to page layout.
Readers are also exposed to the authorÕs voice and her undergraduate design work as it relates to the content. The author is the readerÕs mentor. She guides readers through the learning process and applies the bookÕs concepts to the real world.
Typographic knowledge shouldn't be available only to designers. Type Tips educates readers in a way that isn't intimidating or overwhelming.
