They think that UI design is like graphic design--the mysterious process by which creative, latte-drinking, all-black-wearing people produce cool-looking, artistic pieces. Most programmers see themselves as analytic, logical thinkers instead--strong at reasoning, weak on artistic judgment, and incapable of doing UI design. </p> <p>In this brilliantly readable book, author Joel Spolsky proposes simple, logical rules that can be applied without any artistic talent to improve any user interface, from traditional GUI applications to websites to consumer electronics. Spolky's primary axiom, the importance of bringing the program model in line with the user model, is both rational and simple. </p> <p>In a fun and entertaining way, Spolky makes UI design easy for programmers to grasp. After reading <i>User Interface Design for Programmers</i>, you'll know how to design interfaces with the user in mind. You'll learn the important principles that underlie all good UI design, and you'll learn how to perform usability testing that works.</p> 41306 26 6 2001 User Interface Design for Programmers total:31|5:7|4:12|3:10|2:0|1:2| 31 115 83 5 4 0 false false Tue Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Apr 29 23:30:59 -0700 2008 Tue Apr 29 23:39:27 -0700 2008 more...]]> 1 0 true false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Sun Jun 14 17:52:50 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 14 17:53:30 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2004 Mon Mar 09 12:55:02 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 20 09:18:04 -0700 2009 2 3 0 false false Wed Jan 14 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 15 11:45:00 -0800 2008 Mon Mar 16 09:39:25 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sat Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Aug 24 20:32:26 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 26 20:31:45 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Dec 01 06:21:09 -0800 2009 Tue Dec 01 06:21:18 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu Nov 26 19:45:59 -0800 2009 Thu Nov 26 19:45:59 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Nov 17 12:16:38 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 17 12:16:38 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Tue Nov 17 12:13:57 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 17 12:13:57 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Mon Nov 09 12:47:39 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 09 12:47:43 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Fri Nov 06 10:23:40 -0800 2009 Fri Nov 06 10:28:43 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Sun Oct 04 09:03:10 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 04 09:03:10 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Sep 27 09:36:01 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 27 09:36:01 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Sep 04 11:07:47 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 04 11:07:47 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Sep 01 17:30:11 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 01 17:30:11 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Aug 19 08:49:17 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 19 08:49:17 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Aug 04 19:30:04 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 04 19:30:04 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Jul 31 11:06:09 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 31 11:19:14 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jul 25 15:57:33 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 25 15:57:33 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jul 01 21:07:12 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 01 22:22:27 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=41790
