Books by Jeff (President and Principal Consultant Johnson

Provides you with just enough background in perceptual and cognitive psychology that user interface (UI) design guidelines make intuitive sense rather than being just a list or rules to follow. This book equips readers with the knowledge to make educated tradeoffs between competing rules, project deadlines, and budget pressures.

Looks at user interface design bloopers from commercial software, Web sites, Web applications, and information appliances, explaining how professionals make these mistakes, and how you can avoid them. This book covers bloopers in a range of categories: GUI controls, graphic design and layout, text messages, and interaction strategies.
