商品描述

The discipline of user experience (UX) design has matured into a confident practice and this edition reflects, and in some areas accelerates, that evolution. Technically this is the second edition of The UX Book, but so much of it is new, it is more like a sequel.

One of the major positive trends in UX is the continued emphasis on design―a kind of design that highlights the designer’s creative skills and insights and embodies a synthesis of technology with usability, usefulness, aesthetics, and meaningfulness to the user. In this edition a new conceptual top-down design framework is introduced to help readers with this evolution.

This entire edition is oriented toward an agile UX lifecycle process, explained in the funnel model of agile UX, as a better match to the now de facto standard agile approach to software engineering. To reflect these trends, even the subtitle of the book is changed to “Agile UX design for a quality user experience”.

Designed as a how-to-do-it handbook and field guide for UX professionals and a textbook for aspiring students, the book is accompanied by in-class exercises and team projects.

The approach is practical rather than formal or theoretical. The primary goal is still to imbue an understanding of what a good user experience is and how to achieve it. To better serve this, processes, methods, and techniques are introduced early to establish process-related concepts as context for discussion in later chapters. 

  • A comprehensive textbook for UX/HCI/Interaction Design students readymade for the classroom, complete with instructors’ manual, dedicated web site, sample syllabus, examples, exercises, and lecture slides
  • Features HCI theory, process, practice, and a host of real world stories and contributions from industry luminaries to prepare students for working in the field
  • The only HCI textbook to cover agile methodology, design approaches, and a full, modern suite of classroom material (stemming from tried and tested classroom use by the authors)

商品描述(中文翻譯)

使用者體驗(UX)設計的學科已經成熟並發展成一個自信的實踐,這個版本反映了這種演變,並在某些領域加速了這種演變。從技術上講,這是《The UX Book》的第二版,但其中有很多新內容,更像是一部續集。

UX的一個主要積極趨勢是持續強調設計 - 一種突顯設計師創造力和洞察力的設計,並將技術與可用性、有用性、美學和對用戶的意義綜合起來。在這個版本中,引入了一個新的自上而下的設計框架,以幫助讀者進行這種演變。

整個版本都以敏捷的UX生命週期過程為導向,解釋了敏捷UX漏斗模型,作為與現在事實上的標準敏捷軟件工程方法更好的匹配。為了反映這些趨勢,甚至書的副標題也改為“敏捷UX設計,為了優質的用戶體驗”。

這本書設計為UX專業人士的實踐指南和實地指南,也是有志學生的教科書,附帶課堂練習和團隊項目。

這種方法是實用的,而不是正式的或理論的。主要目標仍然是灌輸對什麼是良好用戶體驗以及如何實現它的理解。為了更好地實現這一點,早期引入了流程、方法和技術,以建立與後面章節中討論的上下文相關的流程相關概念。
