 | The New Typography by Jan Tschichold, Robin Kinross
Since its initial publication in Berlin in 1928, Jan Tschichold's The New Typography has been recognized as the definitive treatise on book and graphic design in the machine age. It is at once a key theoretical document of Central European modernism between the world wars and an invaluable source of working principles for the practicing designer. This long-overdue English translation, which reflects Tschichold's original typography and design, is essential reading for designers, art historians, and all those concerned with the evolution of visual communication in the twentieth century.
