glyph

Cicada Books will soon release an awesome little book about the glyphs you see every day. In the book, you’ll discover the history behind each of these glyphs, which makes it a nice visual exploration of punctuation marks and other typographic symbols, as the title says.

The book is printed in a small, very practical format. It is very well designed, with an explanation on the origins of each glyph, as well as a few examples of the glyph’s variations in different typefaces. This is the perfect book for all the typography nerds who are obsessed with the little details of type. You can already pre-order it on Amazon.
