Sinopsis:

This bold work responds with great originality and imagination to the problem of changing interest and technology in book making by comparing ancient design methods with modern techniques and illustrating the many ways in which books can be read and used. A blueprint for change, the volume rethinks book cultures of the past, claims that a new renaissance is just over the horizon, and shows how it will function. Combining the written word with the latest multimedia advances, this artistic masterpiece synthesizes the best of the written word from such notable writers as William Blake and Edgar Allen Poe with 860 gorgeous, full-color images from ancient and medieval cultures for a scintillating, multisensory experience. This book will have a place in the design studio, museum gift shop, classroom, and home library of art, history, and language enthusiasts.

Acerca del autor:

Valerie Kirschenbaum is the first female writer in 500 years to design a font for her own book and the inventor of the new genre of "designer writing." A 12 year veteran of New York City public schools, Kirschenbaum currently teaches at Wings Academy in the Bronx. She received grants to study the application of color and design to literature from the International Reading Association and the Children for Children's Fund. She received her B.A. in American Literature and Education from Hofstra University and her M.A. from William Patterson University. Goodbye Gutenberg is her first book.
