Book excerpt: We make inaccessible and unusable websites and apps all the time, but it's not for lack of skill or talent. It's just a case of doing things the wrong way. We try to build the best experiences we can, but we only make them for ourselves and for people like us. This book looks at common interface patterns from the perspective of an inclusive designer-someone trained in building experiences that cater to the huge diversity of abilities, preferences and circumstances out there. There's no such thing as an 'average' user, but there is such a thing as an average developer. This book will take you from average to expert in the area that matters the most: making things more readable and more usable to more people.

And while anyone can learn the UX remedies---usability testing, personas, prototyping and so on---unless your organization "gets it," putting them into practice is trickier. Undercover User Experience is a pragmatic guide from the front lines, giving frank advice on making UX work in real companies with real problems. Readers will learn how to fit research, idea generation, prototyping and testing into their daily workflow, and how to design good user experiences under the all-too-common constraints of time, budget and culture. "A wonderful, proctical, yet subversive book. Cennydd and James teach you the subtle art of fighting for---and then designing for---users in a hostile world."---Joshua Porter, co-founder Performable and co-creator of 52 weeksofUX. com
