The Art of Visual Interface Design

Concentrating on three things - visual interfaces, design and people - this book describes the important human factors that need careful consideration. Avoiding the traps of step-by-step "cookbooks", style guides or reference manuals, this title shows clearly and comprehensively how the concepts that apply to traditional information-oriented graphic design are applied to computer/human interaction. Structured around the principles of a new perspective on interface design, including content, structure, form and behaviour and with a resources section and a detailed case study, this text should be a useful resource for computer scientists and graphic designers.
