By Accident or Design: Challenges and Coincidences in My Life
Autor Rosemary Sassoonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 ian 2018
In
this
reflective
autobiography,
Rosemary
Sassoon,
a
leading
expert
on
handwriting
and
typography,
looks
back
on
her
long
and
varied
career,
paying
special
attention
to
her
unorthodox
progression
through
a
variety
of
fields.
She
details
the
route
that
took
her
from
design
to
the
educational
and
medical
aspects
of
handwriting
problems,
then
on
to
research
and
a
PhD,
and
finally
to
working
in
the
area
of
legibility
in
type
design.
In
telling
the
story
of
an
unusual and
unusually
successful
life,
Sassoon
takes
up
a
number
of
philosophical
questions
about
what
it
is
that
comes
together
to
form
our
characters,
and
what
role
chance
and
coincidence
play
in
our
lives.
