Дизайн привычных вещей
Revised and Expanded Edition
Don Norman - 2002-09-19 (впервые опубликовано в 1988)
Рейтинг Goodreads
В своей повседневной жизни человек сталкивается с массой вещей, ставших для него привычными: двери, выключатели, водопроводные краны, клавиатуры компьютеров и т.п. Далеко не все эти изделия сконструированы таким образом, чтобы облегчить потребителю пользование ими. Автор в увлекательной форме анализирует данный феномен, приводя разнообразнейшие примеры дизайнерских просчетов. Книга будет интересна как профессиональным дизайнерам и психологам, так и любому вдумчивому читателю.
