HOW TO ANALYZE PEOPLE ON SIGHT : The Science of Human Analysis & The Five Human Types [ILLUSTRATED]

HOW TO ANALYZE PEOPLE ON SIGHT : The Science of Human Analysis & The Five Human Types [ILLUSTRATED] Review



Updated Illustrated Edition -
For everyone who wishes to judge people by their appearance, here is How to Analyze People on Sight, by Elsie Lincoln Benedict and Ralph Paine Benedict.

The Benedicts divide humanity into five types, all of which are full of the most deliciously blatant stereotypes you have ever seen. Fat people enjoy life! “Cerebral” types have large heads! Muscular people like to work, but don’t like to think too hard. Also, they have square jaws. People with a large lung capacity should marry other people with large lungs.

How to Restore Jaguar E-type: Your Step by Step Guide to Body, Trim, and Mechanical Restoration (Enthusiast's Restoration Manual) Review



People dream of restoring an E-type, but many fail to complete their project after time or money run out. Do you REALLY need to spend ,000 trimming a two-seater, ,500 on an engine, 00 on a soft top, or ,000 for a new body shell? No – you can do it yourself for far less, provided your goal is a solid, presentable, and above all driveable car. If you are time rich but cash poor, this book is for you.


Designing Type

Designing Type Review



As one of a graphic designer’s most essential tools, typefaces influence the appearance of visual print materials perhaps more than any other component. This essential book explains the processes behind creating and designing type. Author Karen Cheng discusses issues of structure, optical compensation, and legibility, with special emphasis given to the often overlooked relationships between letters and shapes in a font.
The book is illustrated with numerous diagrams that demonstrate visual principles and letter construction, ranging from informal progress sketches to final type designs and diagrams. A wide range of classic and modern typefaces is analyzed, including those from many premier contemporary type foundaries. Introductory essays and diagrams emphasize the history of type, the primary systems of typeface classification, the two main proportional systems for type, the parts of a letter, the effects of new technology on design methodology, the optical illusions that affect density and balance in letterforms, and the differences in form between basic serif typestyles. The book provides detailed guidelines for creating serif and sans serif letters, numbers, punctuation, and accents.  
As design clients increasingly call for original and custom typefaces, Designing Type is a superb reference for both students and professional graphic designers.
