James Felici, The Complete Manual of Typography, Peachpit Press, 2002. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0321127307/ref=lib_rd_btb/103-2717815-6466221?v=glance&s=books
encompasses a wealth of amazing info: theory, practice, history from China onwards through the digital revolution, and copious oddbits (ever wonder how the terms lower case and upper case originated? it's more literal than you might have thought!)
Amazon reviewer: Mr. Felici discusses each area of typography with fine detail and clarity. The book is perfectly organized, concise, beautifully typeset. Anyone and everyone who wishes to communicate well with whatever software program available to them and for whatever purpose (graphic design, print, desktop publshing or web) would benefit greatly from Mr. Felici's Complete Manual of Typography!
