Donald Norman's best-selling plea for user-friendly design, with more than 175,000 copies sold to date, is now a Basic paperback.
First, businesses discovered quality as a key competitive edge; next came service. Now, Donald A. Norman, former Director of the Institute for Cognitive Science at the University of California, reveals how smart design is the new competitive frontier. The Design of Everyday Things is a powerful primer on how--and why--some products satisfy customers while others only frustrate them.
这是一本高屋建瓴、纵观全局但又细心讲解、细密入微的设计之书。凝练的原则+细致的论述+实际的例子+扩展的注解和引用,是这本书的基本写法。 一本从各种角度来说都很好的好书(不包括作者吐槽的没有footnotes因为我看的kindle版有很好地把后面的注释对应到每个标记的位置)。 受益良多,印象最深刻的是利用信息熵的方法来衡量对应于产品的feature及其对应control数量所产生的复杂度。 反过来利用设计原则也是个很有意思的角度(为安全、权限、或者游戏的乐趣而进行反向的运用) 接近末尾提到了文本的线性以及超链接的作用,恰好是我一直在思考的东西,不得不感慨,人家那么久之前(我看的是2002年版,说明最晚是这时候写进去的内容)就考虑到许多东西了。
评分88年的书现在看都不过时;拿来当教材有点找不到point
评分Textbook for CS6750 HCI.
评分十年之后看,很有趣~
评分书里的很多例子有点老,不过设计原则是普适性的。另外引起注意的注意的是 “We are surrounded with objects of desire, not objects of use.” 消费主义对日常生活的影响使得产品设计也越来越迎合人的欲望,而不是实际的需求。
