I picked this book up because every design / usability expert I polled recommended it. And, after reading it, I can see why: It's a great book. It's a quick read, it's well designed, and each point is driven home clearly and concisely through good (and bad) examples.
Some of the topics he covers include:
- How users actually look at a web page
- The importance of presenting users with easy choices
- Why usability testing is important and how to do it cheaply
- Designing web navigation that helps (not hinders) your users
- Writing good copy for the web
I heartily recommend this book to anyone whose interested in a crash course in web usability.
