Altman learned about historical writing systems in order to design new scripts for printing, then on retiring acquired a doctorate in Medieval literature, and so brings both practical and academic perspectives to her study of the various ways people in the western world have embedded speech in symbols so that it can be reconstructed by readers. After tracing the origins and spread of writing, she focuses on Britain during the Middle Ages. Her account is detailed and intricate, but she does not assume readers have any prior knowledge about linguistics. Annotation 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
