Aaron Swartz praises Robert Bringhurst’s
The Elements of Typographic Style, an excellent book that’s a lot more fun than you might think it could be.

This kind of irony is all too common—despite Tog’s knowledge of computer interfaces, his
Web site was a usability disaster before he got help from
Jakob Nielson.
