If you are a young designer entering or contemplating entering the UX field this is a canonical book. If you are an organization that really needs to start grokking UX this book is also for you.

It's a crisp overview of all the foundational activities that you'll encounter as a UX professional.

If you've been practicing and in the UX field for a few years and want a good gut check to answer the question, "Am I doing this right" this is the book for you too. I don't think it will teach experienced professionals anything they don't already know but then again I don't think that was the goal of the book.

UX Design is really focused on how the work of UX designer gets done day to day and its focus on topics that some UX folks ignore, but are critical, like SEO and contract creation are refreshing. The best analogy I can think of regarding this book is that it reminds me of the excellent professional practice guides that the AIGA used to put out years ago.

There's a natural Web focus in this book but folks that are in the UX discipline in any realm should find it useful and perhaps essential reading.

Russ and Carolyn have really done a service for everyone who is either new to UX or is taking on new responsibities in their organization. This is more than just a project guide, as the name humbly implies - in many ways, it's a career guide to how to navigate the many hats a UX professional has to wear, from practitioner to project manager to evangelist.

"A Project Guide to UX Design" takes a broad look at the UX world, covering the basics as well as the business side of many techniques, including personas, user-centered design, user testing, wireframes, and prototyping. It's not a deep dive into any one area, but it's a great overview of the field, even for experienced professionals, and could be a life-saver for anyone new to the field who feels like they're in over their heads.
