This book aims to enlarge the possibilities of reading by suggesting ways to make reading more imaginative and by encouraging a new attitude toward the act of reading. The book discusses the mystery of learning to read, the physiology and psychology of reading, the ongoing contests between various methods of instruction. It guides readers through their own personal histories with a series of questions related to their reading habits before beginning school, in school, and after completing their formal educations. After a brief discussion of common reading errors that can be used creatively, the central chapter of the book, "Creative Reading Techniques, " suggests exercises that make reading an adventure, highly interactive, and imaginative, using both classic and modern literature in ways that blend reading and writing. Along the way, among other things, the book talks about the influence of typography, movies, and television on reading, the joys of misunderstanding, the music of Spike Jones, skywriting, Dada poetry, reading in dreams, the way words sound in the reader's head, and the setting in which text is read.

Typography is broadly defined as the composed arrangement and appearance of text and other elements on a surface that involves elements of design. The editor and graphic designer often cooperate in the process of creating the typography and design for a book, monograph, or journal (in print or online), with the goal of achieving a balance of form and readability. According to typographer Edmund Arnold, good design and typography for English-language publications follow the linear flow of the Latin alphabet and support the act of reading. The English language is read from left to right and from top to bottom. According to Arnold, when a reader of such language begins to read a printed page, the eyes first fall naturally to the top left corner and then move across and down the page, first from left to right and then in a right-to-left sweep to the next line, until reaching the bottom right corner. Any design or typographic element that forces the reader to work against this natural flow (reading gravity) interrupts the reading rhythm and should be avoided...

Abstract This chapter shows how typography—the ‘whole art of printing’ and its artefacts—has been routinely implicated in editorial and bibliographic projects to establish the authenticity of the Shakespearean text: from a concern among early modern playwrights about the capacity of moveable type to adequately mediate authorial vision to the use of the handpress as a means of restoring the impression of authorial presence. The persistent role of the printing press, its tangible materials, and its textual effects (both desirable and undesirable) in discussions of Shakespearean authorship has not yet been fully acknowledged or illustrated. Structured as a series of vignettes ranging from Edward Capell’s typographically audacious eighteenth-century edition of Shakespeare’s plays to A. H. Bullen’s establishment of a printing house in Stratford-upon-Avon in the early twentieth century to print the complete works, this study examines how typography (type, paper, mise-en-page, the labour of bookwork) has been seen as variously enabling and restricting access to what Shakespeare actually wrote.

For years (seems like centuries) we have seen forecasts that the electronic book is just round the corner, and soon we’ll be able to let the trees grow in peace because there won’t be any more demand for printing onto paper. About 10 years ago I did a TV interview about the launch of some new e-book products and an impending software-only release from Microsoft. The marketing droids were out in force, predicting the immediate demise of the printed page, so my whines about ‘it’s the file format, stupid ’ went unheard. A decade has come and gone, and we still keep hearing that e-paper and e-ink are where it’s at. In 2001 (I think), at the TEX Users Group meeting at the University of Delaware, we even had a presentation from IBM about their research into e-paper, which was fascinating. It seems to be tantalizingly close each time, but never quite seems to make it. The latest device is the Kindle, and it has garnered a growing and eager following, with a wireless connection that works, and a good number of titles coming out from publishers who would previously have dismissed the technology. But it suffers from poor interface design, poor provision of typefaces, and the proprietary tie-in to Amazon. Amazingly, it accepts file formats other than its native AZW (a variant of HTML), including Word, PDF, and Mobi... but not the one format that is designed for the job, the Open Publication Structure (OPS, successor to the Open eBook or OEB format of unhappy memory). As I write this, publishers and manufacturers
