- Extending the scenario method beyond interface design, this important book shows developers how to design more effective systems by soliciting, analyzing, and elaborating stories from end-users
- Contributions from leading industry consultants and opinion-makers present a range of scenario techniques, from the light, sketchy, and agile to the careful and systematic
- Includes real-world case studies from Philips, Daimler Chrysler, and Nokia, and covers systems ranging from custom software to embedded hardware-software systems
