书籍介绍
这并不是一本教你'如何把字排得好看'的工具手册，而是一场关于'排版如何悄悄塑造我们的阅读行为'的思辨。作者 Ellen Lupton 最锋利的观点恰恰反直觉：排版的 humane 功能之一，是帮助读者'免于阅读'——好的设计让人忽略文字本身，让信息顺畅流入。书中反复出现一个判断：界面只有在失败时才被注意到，而优秀的设计应当让日常系统无声运转，必要时又主动'现身'，暴露其构造、身份乃至政治。从拉丁字体的历史脉络（人文体、过渡体、现代体对应文艺复兴到启蒙时代），到'设计是一种情境的艺术'，作者把排版从技术层面提升到认知与态度的层面。适合那些不满足于'照着模板做'、想追问'为什么这样排'的设计者，以及任何愿意重新审视眼前每一个字的人。

精彩摘录
- "Although many books define the purpose of typography as enhancing the readability of the written word, one of design's most humane functions is, in actually, to help readers avoid reading."
- "Design is an art of situations. Designers respond to a need, a problem, a circumstance, that arises in the world. The best work is produced in relation to interesting situations—an open-minded client, a good cause, or great content."
- "Design is as much an act of spacing as an act of marking."
- "An interface calls attention to itself at its point of failure. Design helps the systems of daily life run smoothly, letting users and readers ignore how things are put together. Design should sometimes announce itself in order to shed light on the system, exposing its construction, identity, person"
- "Humanist letterforms are closely connected to calligraphy and the movement of the hand. Transitional and modern typefaces are more abstract and less organic. These three main groups correspond roughly to the Renaissance, Baroque, and Enlightenment periods in art and literature."
