(Preface) 'Jan Tschichold was one of the most influential typographers this century. This book introduces his work to a new audience of type users, and highlights the continuing relevance of Tschichold's work for graphic designers today. Ruari McLean identifies the two unique contributions which Tschichold made to the history and practice of typography: firstly, to show how the ideas of modernism could be applied to day-to-day typography, and secondly, to show the importance of getting all the details right - with elegance. An introductory essay is followed by a selection of illustrations with extended captions, offering today's practitioners a portfolio of outstanding design solutions by a pioneer of typography.'
