Probably one of the most boring books in the world. K L Hamen celebrates the famous Lorem Ipsum dummy text with another tongue in cheek publication. From the classic extract used by printers to to the full blown 'De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum' by Roman philosopher Marcus Tullios Cicero, are all presented in the gloriously cliched Trajan Pro typeface embedded within the work.The essential yet totally dispensable reference text for anyone in the graphic or print industries. Failing that, just gift it to someone you really don't like very much or sit staring at it on the bus and look hyper intelligent.This 'Definitive Edition' is broken down as follows:Part 1Lorem Ipsum(Lorem As We Know It)Exemplar Stilus(The Original Paragraphs From Which Lorem Is Derived)English Ligua(The English Translation of Lorem)Part TwoDE FINIBVS BONORVM ET MALORVM LIBER PRIMVS(The Complete Text From Which Lorem Is Derived)Part ThreeORATIO IN CATILINHAM(A Variation of Lorem in Four Parts)Part FourMagis Lorem Ipsum(Computer Generated Lorem Junk)Yes, It really is as dull as it sounds and it just goes on and on and on. However, graphics are also included, three of them. A drawing of Cicero's head, a nice flourish for the top bits of the chapters and a different one for the bottom. The cover is also included.
