Rezension zu „The Essential Persona Lifecycle: Your Guide to Building and Using Personas “
"Many people think they know how to create personas-but they don t. Hearsay knowledge gathered from surface browsing of a few websites and press releases is a scary and risky background for building a tool on which your user experience is supposed to rest. Better (and safer for your project) to learn from people like Adlin and Pruitt who actually know what they re talking about. As this book shows, personas are not that hard, but there s still more to them than what you can pick up from a blog posting. Read "The Essential Persona Lifecycle" or suffer." -- "Jakob Nielsen, Principal, Nielsen Norman Group"
