Book Description:

Early user interface (UI) practitioners were trained in cognitive psychology, from which UI design rules were based. But as the field evolves, designers enter the field from many disciplines. Practitioners today have enough experience in UI design that they have been exposed to design rules, but it is essential that they understand the psychology behind the rules in order to effectively apply them. In Designing with the Mind in Mind, Jeff Johnson, author of the best selling GUI Bloopers, provides designers with just enough background in perceptual and cognitive psychology that UI design guidelines make intuitive sense rather than being just a list of rules to follow. * The first practical, all-in-one source for practitioners on user interface design rules and why, when and how to apply them.* Provides just enough background into the reasoning behind interface design rules that practitioners can make informed decisions in every project.* Gives practitioners the insight they need to make educated design decisions when confronted with tradeoffs, including competing design rules, time constrictions, or limited resources.

Early UI practitioners were trained in cognitive psychology, and developed UI design rules based on it. But as the field has evolved since the first edition of this book, designers enter the field from many disciplines.

Should We Fear Artificial Intelligence
The Mind and the Machine Image
Recent advances in understanding the brain and in programming intelligent computers show that we are not far away to achieve a true conscious and creative Artificial Intelligence. But such an AI will not think like a human! It will be much more intelligent and will thinks much faster than us! This opens the door to all expectations and to all fears. What is happening inside our brains? How does our mind work? What is intelligence ? What is conscience? Will we create someday a true artificial intelligence? How can we design it? What will its capabilities be like, and should we fear it? This book gives a detailed answer to all these questions. Accurate but not without humor, this profusely illustrated book clearly raises the question of what will happe...

Artificial Intelligence Image
Artificial Intelligence presents dynamic new portraits of the men and women in the vanguard of this innovative field. Subjects include Alan Turing, who made the connection between mathematical reasoning and computer operations; Allen Newell and Herbert Simon, who created a program that could reason like a human being; Pattie Maes, who developed computerized agents to help people with research and shopping; and Ray Kurzweil, who, besides inventing the flatbed scanner and a reading machine for the blind, has explored relationships between people and computers that may exceed human intelligence. In the 1950s, a new field, cognitive psychology, emerged as a dialogue between the growing capabilities of digital computers and the study of human cognition an...
