Just My Type is not just a font book, but a book of stories. About how Helvetica and Comic Sans took over the world. About why Barack Obama opted for Gotham, while Amy Winehouse found her soul in 30s Art Deco. About the great originators of type, from Baskerville to Zapf, or people like Neville Brody who threw out the rulebook, or Margaret Calvert, who invented the motorway signs that are used from Watford Gap to Abu Dhabi. About the pivotal moment when fonts left the world of Letraset and were loaded onto computers ... and typefaces became something we realised we all have an opinion about. As the Sunday Times review put it, the book is 'a kind of Eats, Shoots and Leaves for letters, revealing the extent to which fonts are not only shaped by but also define the world in which we live.' This edition is available with both black and silver covers.

Manager in allen Branchen werden mit dem Thema neue, zukunftsweisende Technologien konfrontiert. Hierher gehören nicht nur elektronische Technologien, sondern jede neue Technologie, die in der Lage ist, neue Industriezweige zu schaffen oder bestehende zu verändern. Diese Technologien sind ein "neues Spiel", dessen Regeln unvereinbar sind mit Kultur und Geschäftsmethoden der meisten etablierten Unternehmen. Das erste Buch auf dem Markt, das sich mit diesem wichtigen Thema gezielt auseinandersetzt. Ein interdisziplinäres Expertenteam der Wharton School erläutert, wie Geschäftspraktiken geändert werden müssen, um Innovationen wie der Biotechnologie, der Informationstechnologie und dem Internet zu begegnen. Darüber hinaus wird diskutiert, wie Manager ihre Methoden zur Finanzanalyse, Markteinschätzung und zur Wettbewerbsstrategie ändern müssen, und wie etablierte Firmen künftig die gängigen Fehler im Zusammenhang mit neuen Technologien vermeiden können.
