It provides a real-world example of how research is done in just enough detail that it can both inform a CEO of the role of usability research as well as introduce methodology to someone starting out in the field. Bravo! --Kelly Braun, Usability Manager, Ebay The gap between who designers and developers imagine their users are, and who those users really are can be the biggest problem with product development.

Filled with real-world experience and a wealth of practical information, this book presents a complete toolbox of techniques to help designers and developers see through the eyes of their users.
