The GUI Design Handbook is a superb compendium of design information about the objects used to design GUIs. This handbook contains an alphabetical list of GUI components (check box, combo box, command line, menu bar,...). For each component there are four sections: When to use the component, What design guidelines apply to the component, How to determine"micro-usability"of the component, and What other components may be used for a particular function. There are two good appendices on how to design a good GUI and how to conduct some basic usability tests. This book is useful for anyone who does detailed GUI design or evaluation.
