IDblog ... an information design weblog

Content and Complexity!

It's official! Our happy little book, is now in the warehouse. This is an academic book from a seriously academic publisher, so it's proving to be a challenge to do stuff like, umm, get the cover up on Amazon and perhaps a few inside pages too.

But since I know the effort that will take, here's an (45K, in PDF).

I can't really say what my favorite chapters are (isn't that like choosing a favorite child?). All of them are interesting and useful in their own way. But I must admit that I think Whitney Quesenbery's chapter on the Five Dimensions of Usability (aka, the "5 E's of Usability") is going to be on just a few syllabi in the fall. (If you're an academic, send me an email and I'll help you out with a fair use copy for this or any of the chapters.)

The link to the chapter overview is broken :-(
