hi Typohiles.
I am a self-taught Designer. And my major work area is Illustration & Web. And i do have an interest in Typography.
I would appreciate if i can get some Book recommendations from you experts. I have been reading & following various type blogs around the webosphere, so if you are aware of books which are lot more detailed & still worth buying, please let me know !
Thanks ! :)

I'm self-taught too, and my advice would be to stick around! I've learned a lot from the great community at Typophile :-)
