The strength of this book is really, no surprise, when Hunt is talking about product design itself. He has some insightful things to say about iterative design, how to approach it and measure it and how to manage change so as not to overwhelm the user. To Hunt, product design means embarrassing constant change and he does a good job analyzing what this means.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of chapters, particularly in the second half, that deal with issues in a fairly superficial way. For example, there are chapters on engineering corners like performance and management concerns like leading and inspiring teams that, while relevant, would seem better addressed by more focused books on those topics.
If you are starting out in web product design, then these topics, even in gloss, may prove valuable in giving you a view of the field, but if you are an experienced designer then you've probably encountered this stuff already. However, Hunt's insights into how to use analytical and iterative processes to sculpt a design are still worth while.
“Product Design for the Web” does an excellent job of touching on all aspects of a modern web application and how viewing your application as a “product” can help to make proper design choices. I’m a programmer who is more often involved in making choices regarding backend objects, but it was enlightening to read about how a designer views a large web product and the numerous sources of input that should be considered. In particular, the 3rd section (“Get It Built”), does a great job in describing patterns and practices that I’ve seen in work well in modern web companies, but haven’t really seen put clearly into writing before.
Randy presents the topics in this book in a very easy to follow progression. His writing style should be accessible to any reader, even those without a design or technical back ground. For anyone who is part of a medium to large scale web application and is curious about getting into the mind of a designer, this is a book for you.
