Graphic designers, typophiles, and students of the Modern Movement will welcome the reissue of this important source book. Since it was first published in 1969, it has served as the standard guide to the impact of twentieth century avant-garde movements on graphic design and typography. This revised edition has a more compact format and incorporates new materials and illustrations.  Spencer's substantial introduction examines the origins and artifacts of the revolution in graphic design and carefully disentangles the respective influences of Futurism, Dadaism, De Stijl, Suprematism, Constructivism, and the Bauhaus. Spencer traces the interactions of the key personalities associated with these movements and presents concise biographical sketches of them.  An album of color reproductions displays characteristic examples of the most important innovators' work, representing such genres as posters, magazine covers, letterheads, advertisements, and poems.  Herbert Spencer is Professor of Graphic Arts at the Royal College of Art, London.

The Liberated Page: An Anthology of Major Typographic Experiments of This Century as Recorded in "Typographica" Magazine

"Social Statics is decidedly and unashamedly a liberal document -- a classical liberal document. As such, it concerns the quality and equality of liberty. When first written in 1850, Herbert Spencer was a young rising star in the classical liberal tradition that included John Locke, Adam Smith, Tom Paine and Mary Wollstonecraft, and would reach its flowering with John Stuart Mill and Henry George. This tradition, in decline throughout the twentieth century, was kept alive by a coterie of Georgists and rejuvenated by latter-day libertarians. "Like the discrediting of social idealism as 'utopian', liberal philosophers who base their analysis on natural law are dismissed as 'old fashioned' and 'nineteenth century.' Let us look beyond such derisions and consider George's reminder to University of California students in 1877: 'Macaulet has well said, if any large pecuniary interest were concerned in denying the attraction of gravitation, that most obvious of physical facts would not lack disputers.' "The book you are about to explore deals not with gravity but with those other natural laws that have been disputed for millenia -- because their acceptance within any society would dethrone the mighty, exalt the lowly, and "proclaim liberty throughout all the land." -- From the Foreward by Mark Sullivan

Philosophy

Spencer provides us with an intellectual adventure rarely matched, especially in our own epoch. —From the Introduction Though almost forgotten today, Herbert Spencer ranks as one of the foremost individualist philosophers. His influence in the latter half of the nineteenth century was immense. Spencer's name is usually linked with Darwin's, for it was he who penned the phrase, "survival of the fittest." Today in America he is most often admired for his trenchant essays in The Man Versus the State. But Spencer himself considered The Principles of Ethics to be his finest work. In the second volume, under "Justice," is his final statement on the role of the state. His formula for justice is summed up in these words: "Every man is free to do that which he wills, provided he infringes not the equal freedom of any other man."
