Author Jean-Bénoît Levy is obsessed with hands. Not only has he collected, over the years, hundreds of examples backing up his notion of a worldwide system of hand-signs, as a designer and typographer he has also created his own hand alphabet called "H-and-S." HandBook is Levy's collection of handsigns from all over the world. The panoply of hands presented in this publication includes charming curiosities and laypersons' creations as well as concepts by professional communicators-con?rming that hand signs constitute a global, inter-cultural metalanguage. As a handbook-or "manual"-this publication advances our vision and invites us to observe our own surroundings with a new curiosity and sense of awareness. AUTHOR: Jean-Bénoît Levy, born 1959 in Pully, Switzerland, studied with Armin Hofmann at the Schule für Gestaltung in Basel. Founded Trafic Grafic in Basel in 1989; currently lives in San Francisco und Basel. Numerous awards for his poster designs. Member of Alliance Graphic Internationale 400 illlustrations
