Summary: Fantastic Book
Comment: I have a couple webdesign-related books here at work, and this is the only one I come back to from time to time. It's very well designed and laid out, has plenty of illustrations and humorous cartoons, and just like the title says, you can breeze through this thing and soak it up without really even trying.

This book isn't a nuts-n-bolts kind of thing, with code illustrations or or tooltips or any of that low-level stuff. No CSS, HTML, scripting, architecture tips are in this book.

Summary: Finally, real common sense.
Comment: This is the web designer's slap on the back of the head. We all design for what we think is logical for our clients, but rarely do we pause long enough to ask what is logical for our client's customers. Steve has trulyy hit the nail on the head with this book.

Summary: Before doing anything online, read this book
Comment: This book gives anyone all the basics you need to now before going online or changing a website. As a professional in usability, I would recommend this book especially to webdesigners, webmasters, programmers and whoever is involved in a website but has not any formal knowledge about usability.
A must have.

Summary: I have never laughed so hard...
Comment: when reading a technical book. You will find yourself busting out with "that's so true it's hilarious" laughter fits. It is truly amazing to me how we can be such "designer's and engineers" when building our own websites, but such "end users" when using other's websites. I have always had the "Don't make me think" frustration underlying many website (and software for that matter) experiences and frequently my website feedback and reviews would reflect this sentiment.

This book will prove itself to you because Steve causes you to draw on your own experiences as a web user to understand what your users want from your site.

Summary: Cookbook-style guide
Comment: This is an excellent primer on usability (particularly websites). Steve makes it clear from the beginning where he stands on the issue of usability: "Don't make me think!"

Many users have already done an excellent job of listing the areas that he covers in the book. I just wanted to mention that it is well written, is itself well designed, and a pretty quick read.

I keep coming back to the book, and my copy is really dogeared.
