Good question. Today we all live by the web, through smart phones and PCs, apps and websites, not to mention social networks that I personally have not yet discovered. The web and its usability is part of our common language, a new alphabet, grammar and syntax we have had to learn to live in our world and get along in our profession and free time. But if you met a person who was only able to speak and not read and write you would say he is an analphabet, the same is not true for a user of the web from whom no one expects she/he be able of composing or better designing a website or an app. Presently, many domain professionals are willing to designing web content necessary for their specific necessities, but not yet able to do it by themselves and look for “primers” or “how to..” books to help them start or go pro in this activity. “Don’t make met think” is I believe one of the basic books to learn from. Not only it is easy to read and very clear, but it is also funny, entertaining, full of useful information and at the same time systematic and complete. Steven Krug is evidently a guru of web usability and he has reached the 3rd edition of his book that has filled the minds and hearts of thousands of computer people. It has been and is so popular I believe because it gets to the point of how to think before starting to design. In some ways it is almost a psychology text or better it uses a practical psychological approach to give simple directives to follow in order to keep on the right tract while carrying out design. It sidetracks into information on attention, the use of time, expert remarks on design and interfaces and also on how people actually think. A whole chapter is focused on ethics of web design: a web site should be a “mensche” or as we would say in Italian “un uomo d’onore”, a man of honor, and another on mobile applications with all their space related problems. So, if you are a information technology specialist or if you are an amateur wanting to learn how to design an app or a website, this book is a good point to start from. Read it, love it and treasure its teachings. Review: Buy, don't rent, this usability text! - ***SPOILER ALERT*** I share Steve Krug’s definition of Usability (even though he doesn't share it until the last chapter) here because I feel it describes his own book so well: Usability: “A person of average (or even below average) ability and experience can figure out how to use the thing [i.e., it’s learnable] to accomplish something [effective] without it being more trouble than it’s worth [efficient].” This book is learnable in that its format is structured but delightful, with clearly laid out chapters with copious illustrations that enhance and amuse without distracting. It has a full index and easy-to-reread organization, which I know I will be turning to again and again as I perform regular usability testing on my company’s website. This book is effective in its recommendations for how (and why) to design sites to be usable and then later to regularly test the usability of what you have created, being ready to tweak based on the results. Many other reviewers have said it, and I mean it: I am going to make this book required reading for all stakeholders in our company website. Whether we digest individual chapters at weekly staff meetings or people read it on their own, there is too much good content in Don’t Make Me Think to keep to myself. And finally, this book is efficient. Weighing in at a scant 200 pages (yes, exactly 200), it still contains enough deep thought and meaty content to be truly useful. Krug just follows his own directives and writes the book as if writing for the Web, spare and concise, making good use of headings and bullet points to clearly get his message across. I salute his inclusion of the revised chapters addressing the “Wild West” of development for mobile platforms, even though trends are still in flux as developers work out what works and what doesn’t. He is understandably cautious to embrace any trend, and at this point, that is wise. I do look forward to the next revision, however, to see his take on the latest developments. Don’t Make Me Think was required reading for a course on Emerging Web Trends, and I cannot think of a better text. I have already ordered many of the other books Krug recommends for my holiday reading, and appreciate his inclusion of links to helpful supplementary materials on his own website. If you are a student considering whether to rent or buy this textbook, I would definitely vote “buy.” This one is a keeper. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00HJUBRPG | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #200,615 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #4 in Web Design (Books) #5 in User Experience & Usability #5 in Web Site Design | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (4,639) | | Edition | 3rd | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 40.2 MB | | ISBN-13 | 978-0133597264 | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Part of series | Voices That Matter | | Print length | 210 pages | | Publication date | December 23, 2013 | | Publisher | New Riders | | Reading age | 18 years and up | | Screen Reader | Supported | | Word Wise | Enabled | | X-Ray | Not Enabled | ## Images ![Don't Make Me Think, Revisited: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability (Voices That Matter) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71cbQhA0LqL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bible of web usability common sense *by M***A on November 29, 2015* I am a doctor, a surgeon, so you would say why are you reading “Don’t make me think”.

It’s kinda cheap paper and it feels strange on the skin. Otherwise the book contents are 100% golden information. It’s worth looking past the weird paper used. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/116401266-dont-make-me-think-revisited-a-common-sense-approach-to](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/116401266-dont-make-me-think-revisited-a-common-sense-approach-to) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-06-22*
