| 1. |  | Don't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability, 2nd Edition from New Riders Press Price: $26.40 Customer Review:  This is one of those books that you read and nod your head 'yes'. A few times I said, 'DUH!' while hitting my forehead. Things that are obvious but not thought of by the people creating the site. Great thoughts on testing and human factors analysis. Well worth the money! |

| 3. |  | Designing Interfaces: Patterns for Effective Interaction Design from O'Reilly Media, Inc. Price: $32.97 Customer Review: This book is by far the best book that does for the User Interface world of computing what Edward R. Tufte's series of books does for the writer's of technical reports and their needs to present and represent many varied types of data and data interaction. Need to show the effects of miles marched,... |

| 5. |  | World of Warcraft Programming: A Guide and Reference for Creating WoW Addons from Wiley Price: $26.39 Customer Review:  An ok book if you are into this sort of thing... The WoW game itself is pretty restricted it what it will allow you to do programming wise; consequently this book is pretty limited in what you can do with it... I enjoyed the information in the book; however, I didn't find much practical... |

| 6. |  | Sketching User Experiences: Getting the Design Right and the Right Design (Interactive Technologies) from Morgan Kaufmann Price: $32.97 Customer Review: The word 'design' in English covers such a wide range of activities that it has become unusfully vague, applying as well to designing a business model as to designing a frock. Bill Buxton describes the activities of designers who have usually been to design school rather than engineering or business... |

| 7. |  | CSS: The Definitive Guide from O'Reilly Media, Inc. Price: $29.69 Customer Review: A solid plot, well-formed characters, and an intriguing writing style make this... wait, what? This is a boring, very useful book. I've read a lot about CSS on the web and nothing came close to the explanation in this book. Instead of saying things like "we won't bother you with the complex way... |

| 8. |  | Information Architecture for the World Wide Web: Designing Large-Scale Web Sites from O'Reilly Media, Inc. Price: $26.39 Customer Review: One thing I found great about this book is the way it backs up its arguments with proper evidence with real-time examples. It would put an explanation (for example about labeling and navigation) then introduce a site and analyze it from that particular perspective. For someone who wants to know... |

| 9. |  | Core Animation for Mac OS X and the iPhone: Creating Compelling Dynamic User Interfaces (Pragmatic Programmers) from Pragmatic Bookshelf Price: $23.07 Customer Review:  This book is 175 pages, but should probably be about 50 which is saying a lot considering how many photos there are. The text is really redundant and chatty, probably trying to get the book to enough pages to sell it. This is hands-down the worst Pramatic Bookshelf title I've read, though the author... |

| 10. |  | Letting Go of the Words: Writing Web Content that Works (Interactive Technologies) (Interactive Technologies) from Morgan Kaufmann Price: $32.97 Customer Review: I actually met Ginny when she gave a presentation at a marketing conference. She was pushing her book and I looked forward to her insight. It turns out, a lot of what she wrote was somewhat common knowledge for me. I am no wordsmith on the web, but many of her suggestions seemed obvious. I would... |

| 11. |  | About Face 3: The Essentials of Interaction Design from Wiley Price: $29.70 Customer Review:  The first thing you will notice about this book is that the author is extremely wordy. There is a constant repeat rephrasing of the same information. For instance, you will read that software developers usually don't know what they're doing nine-hundred times in the first chapter(and if the drivel... |

| 12. |  | Interaction Design: Beyond Human-Computer Interaction from Wiley Price: $65.81 Customer Review: I really like this book because to me it seems to have an air of 'this is the way we see it, but if you think this or that is better by all means do that'. I find a lot of authors on the subject give you 'their' view on thing whereas Sharp, Rogers & Preece sort of seem to show you what's out... |
