Download or read book Just My Type written by Simon Garfield and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2010-10-21 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just My Type is not just a font book, but a book of stories. About how Helvetica and Comic Sans took over the world. About why Barack Obama opted for Gotham, while Amy Winehouse found her soul in 30s Art Deco. About the great originators of type, from Baskerville to Zapf, or people like Neville Brody who threw out the rulebook, or Margaret Calvert, who invented the motorway signs that are used from Watford Gap to Abu Dhabi. About the pivotal moment when fonts left the world of Letraset and were loaded onto computers ... and typefaces became something we realised we all have an opinion about. As the Sunday Times review put it, the book is 'a kind of Eats, Shoots and Leaves for letters, revealing the extent to which fonts are not only shaped by but also define the world in which we live.' This edition is available with both black and silver covers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In He's Just Not Your Type (And That's a Good Thing), a relationship expert and dating columnist shares her counterintuitive approach to lasting love: encouraging women to date their "non-types." After years of dating, many women fall into a relationship rut. As serial daters, they are attracted to the same type of man time and again. Clearly, something's not working. But the problem is not that he's just not that into them—the reality is, he's just not their type. Relationship expert and life coach Andrea Syrtash hears the disbelief in her clients' voices when they admit that their "Mr. Right" relationship has again gone wrong. In He's Just Not Your Type, Syrtash challenges readers to date outside their comfort zones and poses hard-hitting questions: What if the kind of man they think will make them happy never will? What would happen if they dated someone they'd never considered dating? In each chapter, Syrtash shares stories of women who have found lasting happiness with their non-types (NTs) and provides exercises designed to help readers assess their big-picture goals and core values. In doing so, she shows women how to make better choices in dating so they are more likely to find true love.

Book excerpt: "A beautiful story about healing through trauma, and finding love again (both within yourself and another) after a toxic relationship." -Melissa Karibian, author of A Song of Silver and Gold. This can't work out. It won't end well. But what if it does? When Ava meets Parker in an LGBT therapy group, she's hesitant to get close to someone new. Ava's traumatic past with relationships, and her inability to fully embrace her asexuality has made it hard for her to connect with anyone. But when she starts seeing Parker everywhere, she finds it hard to ignore how familiar Parker is, and how at peace Parker's presence in her life makes her feel. Parker is less than a year out of a toxic relationship when she starts seeing Ava all over town. At the gym where she works, at the coffee shop she frequents, and then at the LGBT therapy group she decides to attend on a whim. She takes this as a sign from the universe, but is shocked to find that Ava doesn't believe in fate, and none of the charm and charisma that has worked before will quite cut it this time. As the two grow closer, they both have to decide if holding onto the things their exes taught them are also holding them back from their future. Content warnings: Discussions of trauma Discussions of domestic violence Alcoholism Representation: Own voices Asexual main character Lesbian Bisexual side character "This book was so amazing! The characters are realistically flawed, as well is their journey through trauma healing, which really hit." -Goodreads Review "This book definitely grew on me; it's well written; the characters have depth and painful pasts and while watching them struggle to work through things was a little heartbreaking at times, and I will admit I teared up a bit at one point. Overall it was a really cute story." -Goodreads Review "A beautiful romance novel about love, sexuality and healing trauma... I couldn't stop highlighting this book, every other line was funny, relatable, sad. It made it all feel so real like I was with them." -Goodreads Review "I particularly loved the asexual representation in this book. It's still so rare to see and it has been written so well - asexuality is a spectrum and I love how that is explored here." -Goodreads Review "This book has such a cute romance, but ah this made my heart ache in many ways." -Goodreads Review

Download or read book Not My Type written by Apryl Williams and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the world of online dating, race-based discrimination is not only tolerated, but encouraged as part of a pervasive belief that it is simply a neutral, personal choice about one's romantic partner. Indeed, it is so much a part of our inherited wisdom about dating and romance that it actually directs the algorithmic infrastructures of most major online dating platforms, such that they openly reproduce racist and sexist hierarchies. In Not My Type: Automating Sexual Racism in Online Dating, Apryl Williams presents a socio-technical exploration of dating platforms' algorithms, their lack of transparency, the legal and ethical discourse in these companies' community guidelines, and accounts from individual users in order to argue that sexual racism is a central feature of today's online dating culture. She discusses this reality in the context of facial recognition and sorting software as well as user experiences, drawing parallels to the long history of eugenics and banned interracial partnerships. Ultimately, Williams calls for, both a reconceptualization of the technology and policies that govern dating agencies, and also a reexamination of sociocultural beliefs about attraction, beauty, and desirability.
