Here are the books I recommended in the second edition of Don’t Make Me Think!, plus two great new ones that came out since then:

  • Caroline Jarrett's definitive book on designing usable Web forms. (I liked it so much, I wrote the foreword.)

  • Ginny Redish's excellent (and much-needed) book about writing for the Web. (Yes, I wrote the foreword to Ginny's book, too.)
