Designing the Moment: Web Interface Design Concepts in Action (Voic... |
This book follows "Designing the Obvious", which is an introduction to Hoekman's philosophy on design. "Designing the Moment" takes more of a case study approach and nuts out many of the contemporary UI design issues.
It is not an encyclopedia or complete reference - you will need to go elsewhere for that. But it does get you in the groove (in a "teach a man to fish.." kind of way)
More than anything, I find Hoekmen's approach to web design just clicks for me. Reading a few pages is great "exercise for the mind", helping you limber up and get in the right mindset when approaching a design problem.
For that reason, it's a book I'd like to always have handy .. definitely a must for the bookshelf!
