Scope and Contents

This third edition provides hundreds of new full-color illustrations and new material in areas such as alphabets, Japanese and Dutch graphics, and the computer revolution. The book is organized into five sections: The Prologue to Graphic Design; A Graphic Renaissance; The Industrial Revolution; The Modernist Era; The Age of Information. Each section is then divided thematically into chapters. This edition has expanded content, revised format and typography, timelines for each section and an expanded bibliography. In keeping with the Epilogue in the first and second editions, Meggs designed the dust jacket of this second edition using computer generated graphics. The expansion in this revision relates mainly to th edigital revolution in typography and the new "dirty" typography. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
