A screen-centric view of various professional's work with the computer.

In this book, I have collected over one-hundred descriptions of design and development processes, from architecture, industrial design, mechanical engineering, quality management, and software development. They range from short mnemonic devices, such as the 4Ds (define, design, develop, deploy), to elaborate schemes, such as Archer’s 9-phase, 229-step “systematic method for designers.”

Improve your websites, software, hardware, and consumer products to make them more usable to more people in more situations. ‘Just Ask: Integrating Accessibility Throughout Design’ helps you develop effective accessibility solutions efficiently.

Mental models give you a deep understanding of people's motivations and thought-processes, along with the emotional and philosophical landscape in which they are operating. You use mental models to align your design strategy with what people want. Indi Young's book will help product designers, web designers, and business strategists develop digital, physical, and environmental interactions that help people accomplish their goals.

The first cross-disciplinary reference of design.
