review 1: It's a fantastic book filled with rich examples of craftsmanship in product and interaction design. He establishes a lexicon and process around which one can define such details in product design. Still, it hits a level of marketing gimmick in its existence, a need to coin a term that does not need to be coined. Craftsmanship is craftsmanship. Recommended reading for all designers, and probably of greater value to those starting out in the field. I can see it providing most value to people unable to deconstruct the experiences they find elegant / clever / thoughtful and helping them learn to make such decisions themselves.
review 2: An eye opening guide through the power of microinteractions that are often the reasons products appeal to their customers. Staffer... more uses some fantastic examples from products we are all familiar with. I did find some difficulty in fully distinguishing how to keep microinteractions simple e nought that they aren't features, but no doubt there are some worthwhile applications for solid product development. less
