What are squares? And where are they in a book? Why are they called squares and how did they even come into existence? I am about to embark on a journey to learn and discover about the mystery of squares. Book squares is the research topic for my Masters programme thesis which will take me down the road through the history of bookbinding, the evolution of squares and what problems do they cause? Yes, I am so square, I can't help it.
