Product Description

Product Description
An understanding of what makes things interactive is key to the successful creation of websites, computer games, and software. In The Art of Interactive Design, Chris Crawford explains what interactivity is, how it works, why it's important, and how to design good software and websites that are truly interactive. Crawford's colloquial, conversational style makes it easy to grasp the fundamentals and the theoretical underpinnings of interactivity, as he discusses specific social and artistic issues.

4.0 out of 5 stars A little less of the whoop de doo but still a useful book, 10 April 2003

By A Customer

Although not as bad as the woeful dummies series use of friendly banter, Crawford does slip into page filling wacky phrases. This is sad because the wisdom he exhibits can speak for itself. Clear analysis that is actually practically useful abounds in this book. Of equal importance is his critical review of that which multimedia has become i.e. pretty turgid. He offers a few pointers for the way forward too. Worth a punt over the tons of web design and usability books out there that cannot go beyond prettiness and functionality.
