This is the copy of the 2nd edition of the design classic Stop Stealing Sheep & Find Out How Type Works that’s been on my bookshelf since university. A newly updated 4th edition was recently published and, what’s more, it’s been made available as a free PDF on the Google Fonts site under a Creative Commons license. They also have an interview with author Erik Spiekermann, who says he’s “kind of hopeful for our craft of communication that we are slowing down once again.” Here’s hoping.

The new edition is thankfully available in paperback as well.
