Critics Review
“Erin Malone has written a comprehensive account of women’s entry into the field of interaction design. She demonstrates that female designers have largely defined the discipline as it is practiced today.”
—Barry Katz, Professor Emeritus, California College of the Arts; author of Make It New
“In through the Side Door is a deftly written history of computing that centers the advances women have made that make our current technological landscape possible. A must-read for anyone interested in computing or interaction design.”
—Mar Hicks, Associate Professor of Data Science, University of Virginia; author of Programmed Inequality
“We are lucky to have Malone’s compelling and impeccably researched book that highlights what was in plain sight but has never gotten its due: the web of women who made interaction design.”
—Molly Wright Steenson, CEO and President, American Swedish Institute; author of Architectural Intelligence; coeditor, Bauhaus Futures
