Wrapping Up Self-Taught Design Semester
Only two books left in my self-taught design semester.
Envisioning Information by Edward Tufte
The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, 2nd edition by Edward Tufte
So far, my favorite book has been Dan Saffer’s Designing for Interaction: Creating Smart Applications and Clever Devices. Its a great read and really inspiring to younger interactive designers like myself.
While it was hard to squeeze in that hour or so of reading every other day, it has more than payed itself off. I can honestly say I’ve learned a lot of things these past few months that have helped solidify my design processes. I have a better understanding of Interaction Design as a whole and more importantly know how I can become a better designer.
Anybody reccomend any books for a Spring Semester?

Tufte is amazing! When it comes to effective visualization of multiple datasets no one even comes close to him.
