For the August installment of the UX Melbourne bookclub we are going to look at  Susan Weinschenk’s book ‘100 Things Every Designer Should Know About People’. 


You've got less than a month to read this book so there’s never been a better time to start reading! (and see below for the 35% discount publisher code).


About the book:


We design to elicit responses from people. We want them to buy something, read more, or take action of some kind. Designing without understanding what makes people act the way they do is like exploring a new city without a map: results will be haphazard, confusing, and inefficient. This book combines real science and research with practical examples to deliver a guide every designer needs. With it you’ll be able to design more intuitive and engaging work for print, websites, applications, and products that matches the way people think, work, and play.”


The publisher PeachPit has given us a 35% discount code. To claim the discount just select the books you wish to purchase and use ‘USERGROUP’ as the discount code.


Do I have to read the book?

All welcome, even if you haven’t read the book.

When is it?

Tuesday 19 August

6.00pm for a 6.30pm start

Where is it?

How much does it cost?

Nothing, it’s absolutely free. (Just turn up and buy something from the bar to thank them for their support of UX Melbourne.)
