There are many instances where interest in the materiality and design of the book links contemporary literature to art books, as they have developed since the 1960s. The five parts of this Handbook cover the themes and forms of reflection on book design, design considerations in historical book types, children's books and picture books, central forms and concepts, along with 100 examples from literature and the art of the book.
