From the Back Cover
At last! Here's the dictionary of GUI components that every software designer has been searching for. Simply look up the component you're interested in and find: how to test it on users to make sure you picked the right approach; what it is; what it's good for; how to design it. The book contains an easily implemented procedure for designing a good GUI, and describes a dozen of the most effective types of usability tests, many of them quick and easy to do. What readers said about Fowler's first book, The GUI Style Guide: "... Everything you always needed to know about to communicate across that flat glass barrier-the computer screen."--Nicholas Zvengintzov, Software Management News. "Practical, comprehensive guide to creating GUI interfaces... An excellent resource for software developers and technical writers."--Computer Book Reviews.
