商品描述

Donald Knuth's influence in computer science ranges from the invention of literate programming to the development of the TeX programming language. One of the foremost figures in the field of mathematical sciences, Knuth has written papers which stand as milestones of development over a wide range of topics. In this collection, the second in the series, Knuth explores the relationship between computers and typography. The present volume, in the words of the author, is the legacy of all the work he has done on typography. When type designers, punch cutters, typographers, book historians, and scholars visited the University while Knuth was working in this field, it gave to Stanford what some consider to be its golden age of digital typography. By the author's own admission, the present work is one of the most difficult books that he has prepared. This is truly a work that only Knuth could have produced.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

唐納德·克努斯(Donald Knuth)在計算機科學領域的影響力涵蓋了從文學編程的發明到 TeX 程式語言的開發。他是數學科學領域的傑出人物之一,撰寫的論文在廣泛主題的發展上都成為了里程碑。在這本系列的第二本書中,克努斯探討了計算機與排版之間的關係。根據作者的說法,這本書是他在排版領域所做工作的遺產。當排版設計師、打孔工、排版師、書籍歷史學家和學者們在克努斯從事這一領域的工作時,斯坦福大學被認為進入了數位排版的黃金時代。根據作者自己的承認,這本書是他所準備的最困難的書籍之一。這確實是只有克努斯才能創作的作品。
