I'm a UX Director with over 20 years of experience (pushing pixels around before the term UX had fully entered everyday parlance). I received a digital review copy of 101 UX Principles but was not offered compensation for this review. On first perusal, I was (wrongly) disappointed that it conflates UI with UX. So many great UI suggestions! But UX? As I have gone back to it, though, I realize that the first section (UX Field) lays out the KEY PRINCIPLES aspiring and early career UXers (and grey hairs like myself, too!) must understand deeply in order for the remaining UI principles to be valuable to them. The context in which the principles are to be applied might (maybe?) trump the principles, themselves, though for the vast majority of them, I can't imagine when or how. If I have learned anything, it's that the only absolute way to think about any of this is, "It depends." Except for this book. It's absolutely a gem.

One of the best UX resources with each principals organized in different categories. From Typography, content, data, to interactions and more. Each principal is well written, and easily digestible format with actionable learnings. This is a wonderful resource kit for young and seasoned UXer!

One thing I like about learning from books is when there are actionable solutions to them. We often have to figure it out and go to great lengths to apply it in our work.This book sets it to the essentials so you can easily pick it up and immediately apply it. It's a must for beginners and a good remembrance for veterans who can get caught up in trends.It's simple, and that's what UX design is at its greatest. A big well done to the author for keeping it to what this industry is about.

This book should be required reading for anyone looking to get into UX. Although the focus seems a bit more on design rather than research, I think folks interested in either side of UX would find this book to be a great overview of the field in general.
