"Through a close examination of the material and visual culture found online, Wagner offers a contextualizing historiography that takes the reader from the art of ASCII to hatred of Comic Sans. By combining design history, visual, and material culture, this book offers a new glimpse into the role of letter form and typographical structure in the history of digital culture"--
