Font Garden

Summary: What a prize!
Review: If you are interested in fonts and/or artistic development of brochures, etc., this visual "dictionary" of fonts is a gem to own.
My suggestion is that it be reissued. Also, the book needs a clearer explanation of what is or is not needed(in addition to their enclosed CD), to add the fonts to the many different Windows applications now available. I know from experience that just installing a font from the CD isn't all there is to it (for example,for Windows XP). This sounds more negative than I mean it to, but with a few tweeks to the text, this book is nice asset to a desktop publisher.
