About the author

Robert Laurence Mills (April 15, 1927 – October 27, 1999) was a physicist, specializing in quantum field theory, the theory of alloys, and many-body theory. While sharing an office at Brookhaven National Laboratory, in 1954, Chen Ning Yang and Mills proposed a tensor equation for what are now called Yang–Mills fields. This equation reduces to Maxwell's equations as a special case.

Promettente nel titolo, ma deludente nei contenuti: sotto il marchio un po' forzato della 'invisibilità', Mills scrive una discreta guida alla progettazione per il web (architettura dell'informazione, colori, scrittura), in cui le parti più interessanti non sono tanto quelle dedicate all'ormai immancabile storytelling, quanto quelle riservate all'analisi dettagliata di quattro casi di studio.

Started a little slow, the first chapters were kinda useful but i've read color theory and some cultural communication differences a lot. When i've found this book excels is the last chapters, specially the storytelling and the case study is very interesting and insightful.

Excellent for anyone just getting started in design.
