The book was in good enough condition to read but very smelly. When reading it I wondered what smell was turning me and it was the book- like it had been in a heavy smokers house or damp. I feel this is quite important when selling books.

Excellent breadth and and depth of coverage
5 Oct 2002
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is an excellent text in terms of coverage and pacing. If you are interested in human-computer interaction, this is a 'must have' text. What astonished me about this book is that it covered more issues in HCI than many dedicated user interface design books. The text admirably blends practical considerations with theoretical concerns and trends. It strongly focuses on motivational issues surrounding users of learning packages(an area largely ignored in the bulk of standard HCI texts). Don't pass over this book.

The source for multimedia production
9 Nov 2001
Format:Paperback
The first clue as to the value of a book is the number of editions. Generally, the true standards in a field will continue to live and be revised. This book is the standard for multimedia design and production. The foundations and theory that are explored in the beginning are as valuable as the detail in the production process that is explained. The most significant aspect of this book has to be the detail concerning methods, especially instructional simulations. Simply a must have for anyone in the field of multimedia who is looking to develop products that go beyond the traditional page turner.
