Hey everyone!
I am really excited to have just seen on Amazon that Steve Krugg has a new book coming out on December 28th called ‘Rocket Surgery Made Easy‘. Don’t worry, it’s not actually about rocket surgery, rather it continues his usual theme of usability and user experience. As the title suggests, the book is all about making them easy to understand but this time with an emphasis on understanding and being able to conduct your own usability testing. If you haven’t read his book ‘Don’t Make Me Think‘, I would greatly urge you to do so as it’s certainly one of my favourite usability reads. His style is concise, informative and injected with down-to-earth humour and real life examples. The book is also filled with plenty of colourful examples to illustrate his points.
The RRP is £28.99, however on Amazon at the moment, their pre-order price is half that at £14.49. Amazing! Can’t wait to get my hands on a copy.
I’ll definitely be getting a copy of that, loved Don’t Make Me Think.
Thanks for the tip. I just ordered ‘Don’t make me think’ on Amazon today (also half price).
You won’t regret it. It certainly seems to be the most popular usability/ux book around. Easy to read, speaks the users language and contains lots of useful pictures to illustrate his points. He seems to follow usability heuristics in his writing style! 😉
Yes! Finally someone writes about new year motivational quotes.
