If only half the rules in this book were followed, the quality of most programs would increase tenfold." –Kevin Bachus, praising Theo Mandel′s The GUI–OOUI War
A total guide to mastering the art and science of user interface design
For most computer users, the user interface is the software, and in today′s ultracompetitive software markets, developers can′t afford to provide users and clients with anything less than optimal software ease, usability, and appeal.
The Elements of User Interface Design is written by a cognitive psychologist and interface design specialist with more than a decade′s research and design experience. Writing for novices and veteran developers and designers alike, Dr. Mandel takes you from command–line interfaces and graphical–user interfaces (GUIs) to object–oriented user interfaces (OOUIs) and cutting–edge interface technologies and techniques. Throughout, coverage is liberally supplemented with screen shots, real–life case studies, and vignettes that bring interface design principles to life.
Destined to become the bible for a new generation of designers and developers, The Elements of User Interface Design
Arms you with a "tested–in–the–trenches," four–phase, iterative design process
∗ Analyzes well–known interfaces, including Windows 95, Windows NT, OS/2 Warp, Microsoft Bob, Visual Basic, Macintosh, and the World Wide Web
∗ Schools you in object–oriented interface (OOUI) design principles and techniques
∗ Offers practical coverage of interface agents, wizards, voice interaction, social user interfaces, Web design, and other new and emerging technologies

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to -OnTimeBooks-, Phoenix, Arizona, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
