The authors also provide an introduction, including notes on the technical and visual development of typefaces, a comprehensive "family tree" of types related to their historical models, and a long illustrated essay in which many examples of widely various typographic problems and their solutions (all of relevance to today's book designers) are discussed. The book itself is set in a new Monotype face designed by Michael Harvey. Alan Bartram is a book designer and author of several books on lettering and type, the most recent being "The English Lettering Tradition". James Sutton is a graphic designer.

Typefaces for Books

This much-needed book serves the practical requirements of all those who specify type for books, whether they are art directors, editors, designers or printers. More than a hundred currently available filmset typefaces are presented here in large-format, double-page specimen settings, in various sizings and spacings. Also shown are display fonts in useful sizes, with bold, roman, italic, small caps and figures. These pages, with their accompanying cast-off and copy-fitting tables, are invaluable as ready-reference sources. The authors also provide a substantial introduction, including notes on the technical and visual development of typefaces; a comprehensive "family tree" of types shown in relation to their historical models; and a long, illustrated essay in which many examples of widely varying typographic problems and their solution—sall of them relevant to the book designer's work today—are identified and discussed.

Anthony Ferro, artist, choreographer, and teacher, created Tess while a professor of Dance at Marymount Manhattan College. Having re-kindled his inspiration as a visual artist, Tony would begin each morning before class by creating an impromptu watercolor. Over time, one character insisted on manifesting herself: Tess. James Sutton, Tony’s spouse, as well as a choreographer, writer, and former professor at NYU, began penning couplets to accompany the illustrations. This singular collaboration resulted in Tales of Tess.

Poor behavior is considered the result of poor skills. This book shows, step-by-step, how things improve when skills improve. But Dr. Sutton takes it one step further in suggesting a new concept: Desperate Behavior. "Young people caught in desperate behavior act badly out of fear and panic," he suggests. "Intervention with them must be different, as traditional measures just don't work over time." He then shares many interventions that do work, all of them relationship-based.Perhaps the most significant contribution of "The Changing Behavior Book" is the perspective that no one can change another person's behavior until they first change their own. It's a poignant thought, and it impacts all intervention powerfully. In the words of fellow psychologist and author, Dr. Jeffrey Bernstein, "This book will change countless lives for the better."
