Scope and Contents
This book features more than 40 essays from top experts and educators in typography today. These essays run from introducing the themes of type and typography to various complex and rare strategies for learning. Jared Ash contributed an essay "The Letter as Such: Aleksei Kyuchenykh as Closet Typographer" in which he describes Mikhail Tarkanov as a lesser known artist-designer of the 1920's and 1930's who was "considered more involved in typographic artistry than [his] more widely recognized colleagues." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
