Today, after a sh*tty day at work, I was wandering the only well-provided bookshop, looking for a book on Type/typefaces/Type design and Lettering, but i'm not was able to choose one?
I have some basis on typo but I'd like to deep into such things. Any suggestion for a good book of this kind?

lets keep this rolling.. i'd like to see a book that specifically deals with building and forming a typeface... there are tons of history books, but i've never really seen one that takes that focus

Yeah, i'm searching exactly that kind of book

oh.. the ones i initially suggested were more of history... typographic workbook has a little bit on creation, but not very indepth

that's the spirit. typography is boring and it sucks. people only pretend to like it because they think it makes them cool. pick up a comic book instead.
