“Nowadays, there are so many really good books about UX that it can be hard to choose where to spend your precious time. I’ll make it easy for you: Read this one. There are less than a dozen books on the ‘Really Great UX Books’ shelf in my office, and this has been one of them since the first edition came out. Regardless of whether you’re a quantitative person or a qualitative person, everyone who’s involved in producing something people use or interact with (from UX/UI professionals, designers, and developers to marketing people, project/product managers and CEOs) should read this.” (from Amazon)
