I am in awe. This book breaks down thorny, technical issues masterfully and makes them accessible to anyone. Even the most experienced practitioners will find something they hadn't considered. Plus, it's a laugh riot. 14/10.
-ERIKA HALL
Author of Just Enough Research and Conversational Design
At last, a book that doesn't dwell in defining the damn thing for the sake of conceptual purity, and in doing so, elevates information architecture practice. Lisa Maria Marquis shows us that even the most minute decisions can have consequences; only by owning them can we build a better web.
