Title: Art Book-? Yes. Design Guide? No Way
Review: If you'd like a beautiful art book to display on your coffee table that attests to what you do for a living (designing Web sites, typography, software, interiors, etc.), then this book would be a good option. If you want real information about design, and guidance to improve your design skills, keep on looking. You will be disappointed in a book with illegibly tiny type for its body text (I know, I know, this book is about designing for users' needs first and good looks second).I feel sad to have to report this, because Ms. Baggerman seems to write well (yes, I suffered through reading all the 6 pt. and smaller type), and has useful information to present, as well as interesting examples. Unfortunately, the designers got in control of this project, and the editorial staff didn't rein them in. Design for Interaction is a treat visually. For usability, however, it undoubtedly lacks.
