Summary: No nonsense, right down practical advice
Review: This is by far the best book I have read on on how to design a site -- not from the images point of view, but from the usability point of view. After designing sites since 1994 a lot of things come second nature to me in terms of navigation and information design. I was looking for a book the designers that work with me could read and benefit from, one that would explain in clear terms the reasons why I do what I do, and this was the perfect one. I must have read at least a dozen of them before it, and none made the grade. This one does. Highly recommended!

Summary: Compulsory eading
Review: Steve Krug practises what he preaches in this book. It's very accessible, with simple language, great graphics and clear instructions. It re-inforced my gut feeling about the sites I work with - they're not simple enough. This is a great book for those facing their first 'web building' experience, and an essential tool to keep the rest of us in line!

Summary: Succinct and straight to the point
Review: The author, Steve Krug, has a written book that is succinct and straight to the point, and does so in a colloquial, impartial, and detailed yet precise manner. I've read other books on web usability, and this one was the best by far. Highly beneficial to beginners as well as experts. THE book to get on web usability.

Summary: Must read for web authors!
Review: Steve Krug communicates his savvy approach to web design and navigation clearly and succinctly using great examples. He sets up best practice maxims which are pretty much indisputable and there's a great script at the end for one-on-one web-testing.
Easy on technical mumbo-jumbo, big on strategy for making your site accessible and easy to navigate - if the user has to try and guess navigational options, Steve would say you're not doing very well as a designer.
Read it!

Summary: Concise, practical and easy to read
Review:
At last -- a usability book with a friendly voice! Good looking, well edited, well proofread, short and to the point: a clearly-written summary of how to make Web sites easier to use. I'd give it five stars but for the fact that there's nothing really new or radical here, and it's expensive for a 195-page book. More please, Steve Krug!

Summary: GREAT, GREAT, GREAT!
Review: If you need to read something about usability, buy this book. It's simple, nice and clear. Goes straight to the point and with a very friendly way to describe each theme.
Krug really knows how to reach the reader and the user, something that "guru" Nielsen never acchieves.

Summary: Designers not users should think
Review: This book does not come up with new wow! kind of concepts that you won't find in some guise somewhere, BUT it is written in an exceptionally readable and understandable manner. The author manages to drive his poiunt across by choosing really good examples. The examples, for me, is what distinguishes this book from others. The author chooses, in most cases, reasonably well-designed web sites and critisize them using his "laws". And lets face it, it is easy to critisize a really bad example, but critizing a good one is much more difficult. Also quit appropriate is that no claims is made (in fact it is disclaimed in the first chapter) that there exist a "perfect way". The author however drives the message home that designers should think - so that users don't have to think. In essense the author merely provides a framework that can be used to structure your thoughts. If you want to design web sites you MUST READ this book, regardless of what you know or not about user interaction. The book is written with exceptional clarity. I also like the word play in the title - readers of this book will in fact do a lot of thinking - so that they don't make their users think...
