Good Design, Down to the Letter Packages on store shelves, posters on building walls, pages of a website—all contain information that needs to be communicated. And at the heart of that communication is type: visually interesting, interactive, expressive and captivating. Each letter must come alive; therefore, each letter must be carefully crafted or chosen. A solid foundation in typography, as well as an understanding of its nuances, will help you optimize your visual communication—in whatever form it takes. By breaking down the study of type into a systematic progression of relationships—letter, word, sentence, paragraph, page and screen—award-winning graphic designer and professor of communication design Denise Bosler provides a unique and illuminating perspective on typography for both print and digital media and for designers of all skill levels. Through instruction, interviews and real-world inspiration, Mastering Type explores the power of each typographic element--both as it stands alone and as it works with other elements--to create successful design, to strengthen your skill set and to inspire your next project.

After being employed as software programmer for 15 years, it was my brother who introduced me to the world of options Delta trading. In no time, I knew this is what I wanted to do. Since then, I’ve been on the journey to trade options hedging strategies in the Indian derivatives market. Like novice learners, I started learning from Google and books available for options trading. I enrolled for NSE’s Derivative exam, cleared all theoretical doubts and passed the exam with flying colors, after which I felt I can flourish my career as a Delta hedger. Soon, I realized that the world at the live-trading floor was way different from what I’d imagined it to be. I knew the definitions of Delta, Theta, Vega, Gamma well but knowing how to convert this knowledge into profit was an absolute black box! Implied Volatility, Vega profit, Theta loss, Gamma effect, etc., are imperative parts of options Delta hedging. It is equally important to understand the strike-shifting logic, Delta neutral management, VIX movement, economics event impact, etc. There are numerous other aspects of options trading apart from understanding theoretical meanings. I haven't come across any decent material which explains the practical aspects of options trading. I’ve gained this knowledge from sitting at the live terminal and working with 300+ Delta hedgers. I used to take notes on all practical aspects of trading. This book is a result of all those notes I took while learning. It is an outcome of 8+ years of investment in learning options Delta trading. My efforts are to enable all who wish to build a career in options trading. This book should serve as a best combination of theory and practical knowledge of options Delta hedging.
