Editorial Reviews

I know both authors, and it would be hard to say which of them knows more about accessibility. What I do know is that together they know more than any other two people about what's important about accessibility, which makes them exactly the kind of people-and this exactly the kind of book-that I like to learn from.

Make no mistake: this isn't yet another seemingly-endless-series-of-checklists books to help you tick off all the elements that cumulatively add up to accessibility. Instead, it's a book about how to improve the way you do user experience design, so it inevitably produces things that are accessible.

If you're in any way responsible for making things accessible, do yourself a favor and read it. By the time you're done, you'll understand that accessibility isn't something you tack on to a good design-it is good design.

-Steve Krug, Author of Don't Make Me Think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability
