Books Reviews by Users

Design Is a Job by Mike Monteiro

“Did not like this book, very logical straightforward information and felt like the author was just bragging about how great a designer he was.”

-Milo Filo, Rating: 2/5

Designing for the Digital Age: How to Create Human-centered Products and Services by Kim Goodwin

“Really great resource, constantly refer to this at my job.”

-Milo Filo, Rating: 5/5

Lean UX: Applying Lean Principles to Improve User Experience by Jeff Gothelf

“A great book from the Lean school of thought – the take home for me was about creating just enough to move the conversation on. Learn from things, don’t be afraid to fail or throw things out.”

-Matt Watson-Power, Rating: 4/5
