A historical as well as design-oriented perusal of brand logos, Logo Style gives context to the rapidly growing field of logotype design. Chapters within are organized by style as well as the eras that influence them; decorative, which takes inspiration from vintage styles and trends, modern, drawing from the minimalism of the modernist movement, postmodern, with its namesake's irreverent slant, and digital, featuring designs heavily influenced by the pixelated, slick, and colorful trends that sprang out of the Information Age. All include a broad survey of individual logos, as well as case studies of designers and projects rendered in each of the distinctive styles. Logo Style demonstrates how timeless logos influenced by centuries of design history are applied over entire identities to create a unified brand image, while still standing uniquely on their own.

This series is for people--adults and teenagers--who are interested in computer programming because it's fun. The three volumes use the Logo programming language as the vehicle for an exploration of computer science from the perspective of symbolic computation and artificial intelligence. Logo is a dialect of Lisp, a language used in the most advanced research projects in computer science, especially in artificial intelligence. Throughout the series, functional programming techniques (including higher order functions and recursion) are emphasized, but traditional sequential programming is also used when appropriate.In the second edition, the first two volumes have been rearranged so that illustrative case studies appear with the techniques they demonstrate. Volume 1 includes a new chapter about higher order functions, and the recursion chapters have been reorganized for greater clarity. Volume 2 includes a new tutorial chapter about macros, an exclusive capability of Berkeley Logo, and two new projects. Throughout the series, the larger program examples have been rewritten for greater readability by more extensive use of data abstraction.Volume 1 Symbolic Computing, is addressed to a reader who has used computers and wants to learn the ideas behind them. Symbolic computing is the manipulation of words and sentences, in contrast both to the graphics most people associate with Logo and to the numerical computation with which more traditional languages such as Pascal and C++ are most comfortable. This volume is well known for its clear and thorough presentation of recursion, a key idea in computer science that other texts treat as arcane and difficult.The Logo programs in these books and the author's free Berkeley Logo interpreter are available via the Internet or on diskette.
