Help us choose the next book for UX Book Club Philly!

[Roz Duffy]

Hey UX Book Clubbers!

We had a great meeting last week with Jonny Goldstein discussing Dan Roam's Back of the Napkin! Great to see many of you there... and hope to see more of you at the next one.

It's time to start the selection process for the next book.  We'll choose a few books to vote on for the next meeting based on our book spreadsheet:

If you have any new books you'd like to toss in the ring, please shout them out here.

I'm going to suggest Predictably Irrational, Revised and Expanded Edition: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions by Dan Ariely, just because I've been wanting to read it!

Thanks everyone and happy reading!

"Predictably Irrational..." sounds good to me, Roz. Thanks for hooking this group up!

Thanks for the nod Brady!

Any other suggestions for the next book?  We'll probably set something up for late July or early August.

Beach reading anyone?

Hey if no one is going to speak up, we may just pick this book! :)

Anyone, anyone? Bueller?

[Matthew Ventre]

I'd be cool with reading this book. I really liked Dan's TED talk on the topic.

Got a link for that? I saw him at SXSW and was like WOW!!! Also, seeing Stephen Anderson reminded me of his talk.

I've been wanting to read Jon Kolko's Thoughts on Interaction Design, but this one looks good for some light summer reading. And definitely a good follow-up to Stephen Anderson for anyone who made it to PhillyCHI this week :)

[Roz Duffy]

Jamie, I know you're way into Jon Kolko - would love to see if he'd be willing to skype in for something! Want to try to reach out to him?

[Jamie Thomson]

Yeah, that'd be cool -- did we want to do Predictably Irrational first though?
