Today marks the official publication date of Seventy-nine Short Essays on Design, still in "pre-order" at Amazon, but one we're very psyched to read. And true to recursive form, Michael's got an essay about the essays on DO. The start:
Here are some warnings up front. It is a 272-page book about design that contains no pictures. Each essay, as you may have heard, is published in a different typeface, and you may not find every typeface equally easy to read. And 68 of the pieces in the book were previously published on Design Observer, in one form or another, which means you can read most of them for free here.So, then, why a book?

you get a sense of permanence with a book. a knowledge that you can read it whenever you want, even when you can't find a wi-fi network of your laptop runs out of juice. it's not like the book costs $60.
