Title: Obsolete Guide to Interface Designs
Review: This book has received apparently rave reviews, if you look at the stars. But it is simply obsolete. A black and white book, with low resolution images, is no longer appropriate to interface design. Notice that you cannot look inside this book - why is this? The publisher has a good reason for not wanting you to see a preview: you would see the greyscale content, and would probably not purchase it - especially at the asking price of almost $60.Color is such an indispensable (do I really need to say that? Apparently so...) component to ANY interface design, it is hard to see how a black and white newsprint-quality booklet can do the job. Far better, and up-to-date, is O'Reilly's "Designing Interfaces" by Jenifer Tidwell, or even "User Interface Design and Evaluation" by Debbie Stone.
Is the review positive or negative?
