Book Reviews of Sketching User Experiences: Getting the Design Right and the Right Design (Interactive Technologies)

Book Review: A Good Read
Summary: 4 Stars

I read Mr. Buxton's "Sketching" last fall and forgot to post a quick review. Mr. Buxton's work would be of value to anyone in product design or with ideas of developing a more innovative culture (which is why I purchased/read). While there are very good chapter topics, I enjoyed the "mini" chapters where Mr. Buxton shared personal stories/anecdotes of his career (I particularly enjoyed his reference/use of the great Norman Maclean's story, A River Runs Through It and how that story relates to his thoughts on design). The section on Apple's design methodology is worth the price of the book. Highly recommended.
