Whether a marketing campaign or a museum exhibit, a video game or a complex control system, the design we see is the culmination of many concepts and practices brought together from a variety of disciplines .

Each principle is presented in a two-page format. The left-hand page contains a succinct definition and a full description of the principle , examples of and guidelines for its use , and side notes that provide elaborations and references. The right-hand page contains visual examples and related graphics to support a deeper understanding of the principle. The book is organized alphabetically so that principles can be easily and quickly referenced by name. From 3D Projection to the Zeigarnick Effect, every major design concept is defined and illustrated, including these new additions: Feature creep Gamification Root cause Social trap Supernormal stimulus A landmark reference for designers, engineers, architects, and students, Universal Principles of Design has become the standard for anyone seeking to broaden and improve their design expertise, explore brainstorming ideas, and improve the quality of their design work. The titles in the Rockport Universal series offer comprehensive and authoritative information and edifying and inspiring visual examples on multidisciplinary subjects for designers, architects, engineers, students, and anyone who is interested in expanding and enriching their design knowledge.

Review: Great seller and book quality - Bought it from MM munshi and sons, very sturdy packaging and quality also appears to be decent. I have enjoyed reading parts of edition #1 of the book (ebook). Buying this one for a friend who has no association with field of design/ux. :)
Review: Both the book and the seller is awesome - I really liked the book and the seller who placed a personal note inside the book.
