The Top Ten Typefaces for Book Design

Want to know the top ten typefaces used by book design winners? FontFeed did the research:
The American Association of University Presses holds an annual Book, Jacket & Journal Show which catalogs the best in book design and exhibits it around the country .... We ordered catalogs from the last three years of the show and tallied the typefaces used. The results won’t shock you -- each of the top ten is a tried-and-true classic. Yet there is so much more great type out there begging to be used for academic text and titling. So, along with the champions, I’m recommending a few less common alternatives that offer just as much readability, function, and beauty for today’s books and journals.
FontFeed shares their findings here.
