人本界面设计交互式系统的最新指示：英文版

　　《人本界面：设计交互式系统的最新指示（英文版）》This is a valuable book for two reasons. First， it explains how human cognitive abilities and limitations determine which UI designs will be easy vs. difficult for people to learn and use. It can therefore help to educate those software designers who lack training in cognitive psychology. Second， it challenges longstanding GUI design assumptions， pointing out many ways in which conventional GUIs are actually bad for users. It can therefore point the way for evolution of current-day GUIs into something better. What this book is NOT is a design-guide for creating GUIs that are Windows （or Mac， Motif， or Web） compliant. If that's what you want， you should look elsewhere. My one criticism is that， in my opinion， the book loses steam in its later chapters， becoming a collection （the author calls it a 'potpourri'） of Raskin's pet peeves about computers， along with his remedies. For the second edition， these chapters could be tightened up or cut. Nonetheless， the Human Interface should be required reading for every software designer and UI researcher
