This textbook teaches Web design skills within a framework of information architecture, rhetoric, and hypertext theory. The book leads students through the design process and offers a great deal of practical, mainstream design guidance. But in contrast to many trade books, students learn a coherent set of principles that help them reason about each new design challenge they face. Many experienced Web designers will also find value in the systematic, conceptually rich discussion offered here.
Because this is a university-level textbook, Web design is presented in a broad cultural context that includes a brief history of the Internet and a chapter on the societal implications of the Web and the Internet. The book is clearly written and includes over 150 illustrations. Each chapter concludes with a broad range of intellectually stimulating discussion items. A set of 25 "quick start" design guidelines enable readers to begin using ideas from the book immediately.
