A lot of web designers are interested in typography, and rightly so. The two go hand in hand in that you can rarely get away from typography when designing for the web and there are many similarities between the disciplines, anyhow. (Seeing as a web designer and a typographer share the common goal of conveying information in an aesthetically pleasing way without detracting from or coloring it unintentionally.) So, where do you start?

The answer is right here: The Elements of Typographic Style by Robert Bringhurst. It is the typography bible, and while it is not as perfect as some typophiles like to go on and on about, it is certainly the most comprehensive place to start on the long road of learning about, and learning to love, Typography.
