| book description |

This text teaches designers the concepts, history and application of usability concepts in the design of technology. Books on usability engineer ing usually provide a useful introduction to the subject but fail to teach readers to put basic principles to work, or else they provide instruction that is too advanced for the programmers and engineers who most need help building more usable products. ""Usability Engineering"" offers an introduction to HCI principles suitable for students and practitioners who have had little or no exposure to the subject. It then gives clear, practical, easy-to-follow advice on applying these principles in ways that make software and hardware more effective and easier to use. Written primarily for practitioners, this book should also be useful for students entering the field. The book also features several running case studies that allow the authors to introduce more advanced concepts and techniques within familiar, established scenarios. The authors emphasize the real world of usability engineering and focus on projects, teaching readers to apply all or most of what they learn together, for maximum benefit.
