- Poor Kindle edition I got the Kindle edition of this book.
Font is very hard to read and there is a lot of mangled words.
Images in the book are unusable due the poor quality (too grainy).
There are no navigational elements in this book. These are not essential but it would nice to have them. Especially for figures and footnotes.
I love reading books on Kindle but for this one I recommend a hard copy.

Anyone reading this book will instantly appreciate truly good design over the average mud we currently live in.

- It's OK - but how can this be the seminal book on usability...?Having heard that this was the seminal work in usabiliy, my expectations were probably too high.
Some of the principles laid out are indeed excellent and well illustrated.
The structure of the book is - ironically - not crystal clear. As I am reading the book I find myself looking back at the table of contents to understand the structure.
The writing style is slightly entertaining at first and you sympathize with the author hanging out himself as a clumsy ... Read More
