Critique du Library Journal
Finding information on large web sites can be a chore because they are often created without the user in mind. Cato's book addresses this problem with an awareness, understanding, and action methodology. Though more of a treatise on user-centered design than a how-to book on web site creation, it offers real-life scenarios and site critiques that lay readers will find practical. Recommended as a supplement to HTML/how-to-build-a-web-site manuals already in your collection. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
