Subject: GUI design book recommendations?
Hello all,
Can anyone recommend a good book on GUI design? Right now, our developers
design all the interfaces, and usability is definately not a priority. Our
writing department is hoping to get a foot in the door and fix this. So,
does anyone have a favorite book we could try?
Thanks in advance,
Susan Patrick
