5.0 out of 5 starsReal Advices, Deep Insights and Heartfelt Wisdom

Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
THE BOTTOM LINE

Your first book towards a designer career and constant reminder of any career, because, seriously, you don’t get such sobering insights and decent advice very often in life or career.

PROS & CONS

Here’s the book I wish I had read before I had anything to do with design. And here’s the book I wish I could have written. So now it’s easier for me – I simply recommend this book as a must-read to anyone in need.

How’s the book so good? Well, it’s complicated. Let’s look at the pros and cons first.

Pros

- Sobering restatement of what design is about and what UX (user experience) is about
- Thorough debunking of the various myths of a designer’s job titles
- Practitioner’s hard-earned lessons on design’s and UX’s role in business and how to get there
- Insights on the mindset you need as a designer
- Summary of the absolutely essential skills you must learn to master – and it applies not only to a designer career
- Revelation of bitter truths about the reality and challenges faced by a wannabe or practicing designer
- Highly readable, highly quotable

Cons

- Kind of a ‘personal reflection’ narrative. Not that it’s bad, but wouldn’t it be even better if the wisdom bits could be somehow highlighted or emphasized. Personal anecdotes are not worth a second read, but those hard-earned lessons, bitter truths and insightful wisdom are worth a thousand reads – they should stand out. So maybe that’s an editing/layout issue.
- The target audience, as the author emphasizes more than once, include not just designers (and indeed so), but the narration is towards a designer. You might get a feeling like “what? you’re talking to me? but I’m not a designer!Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsRequired Reading for UX Professionals
By Daran J Ferreira on December 21, 2015
Format: Paperback
An excellent piece of work which covers a gap in UX knowledge. Traditionally UX books focus on the "how" with tips and techniques, Robert Hoekman jr delves deeper into the "why". Part instructional, part biographical and very inspiring, you wil find yourself nodding in agreement. The book covers what makes UX professionals tick in a personal and engaging way. But above all it is a call to action to all of us in web design to strive for greater things and better products that we can be proud of. Concise and insightful, this book will undoubtedly become part of the UX canon.
