A book is two-dimensional, ink on paper. Myriads of typefaces have been designed to complement text, all of which are grounded in that two-dimensional form.

But what happens on the computer, in "virtual environments"? Now the typographer can play with typefaces that give the illusion of three dimensions.

This book, filled with wonderful illustrations, explores what typographers are doing in this new environment, while still referencing their history.
