What does this book do? This book addresses interface and screen design from the user’s perspective, spelling out hundreds of guidelines for good design in a clear and concise manner. It blends the results of screen design research, knowledge concerning people, knowledge about the hardware and software capabilities of the interface, and my practical experience, which now spans 45 years in display-based systems.
This book’s first objective is to present the important practical guidelines for good interface and screen design. It is intended as a ready reference source for all graphical and Web systems. The guidelines reflect a mix of human behavior, science, and art, and are organized within the context of the GUI design process.
The book’s other objective is to provide materials that, when applied, will allow our users to become more productive—and more satisfied—using the interfaces we produce. A satisfied user also means, of course, a satisfied designer.
