内容説明
If you design and develop products for people, this book is for you. The Persona Lifecycle addresses the "how of creating effective personas and using those personas to design products that people love. It doesn't just describe the value of personas; it offers detailed techniques and tools related to planning, creating, communicating, and using personas to create great product designs. Moreover, it provides rich examples, samples, and illustrations to imitate and model. Perhaps most importantly, it positions personas not as a panacea, but as a method used to complement other user-centered design (UCD) techniques including scenario-based design, cognitive walkthroughs and user testing.

この本は秀逸です。ペルソナとは何ぞや？という内容から、なぜペルソナが必要か、ペルソナからデザインへの落とし込み方や、ペルソナを使った評価方法、またアンチペルソナ派の上司の説得の仕方やら「ターゲットを一人じゃなくて全員をターゲットにしたいんです」という人への回答まで、「ペルソナ」という文字に関することなら、何でもかんでも載っています。まさにかゆいところに手が届くといいますか。ペルソナやユーザーセンタードデザインについて詳しく知りたい方は、必要な一冊だと思います。
分厚く中身も英語なので、ちょっと敬遠してしまう方も居るかもしれませんが、まずは買って一文ずつ読まなくても目を通してください。最初の方はつまらないのでどんどん飛ばして、気になるところだけ掻い摘んで読むだけでも、これまでペルソナに対して懐疑的だった箇所に当たり、気づいたら無意識のうちに読んでいることと思います。
また、それでも英語は…と思われる方は、もう少し待ってみると、日本語版が刊行されるかもしれません。

One of THE HCI Resource Books for Your Shelf
2007/3/23
形式:ペーパーバック
I should admit my bias up front. There are those who like little short books that make one point and make it over and over. There are many popular books in our field that are like that, filled with stories that all basically make the same point and are just a couple of hundred pages long. They are heavy on fun reading and pithy quotes, and light on meat. If my company doesn't buy them for me, I usually like to borrow these, read the first chapter and last chapter and skim the rest.
The Persona Lifecycle is the other kind of book. It is a book that is large because it is packed with information and ideas. It is big, because the topic is big. It is organized in a way that lets you take it down from the shelf and just read the bits that are relevant to the problem you have at the time. Are you trying to figure out how to get started? Are you trying to figure out how to engage your organization in the effort, and in user-centered design through the use of personas? Are you trying to figure out how to make your personas more effective? Are you trying to figure out how to drive more business value out of them? There is something for every situation.
There isn't just one way to get value from personas, and so a checklist or cookbook isn't appropriate. What are appropriate are principles that can be used to figure out an approach for a particular context, and lots of examples.
Furthermore, it is a book that doesn't just live in the world of theory, or pontificating about a point of view in order to justify a consulting business. It is a book that is filled with practical advice and the experiences of those who are using personas in their jobs.
This is a must-have resource for the HCI professional's shelf.

The persona book that every design professional and academic researcher needs
2006/7/6
形式:ペーパーバック
I have been anxiously awaiting a "how-to" book on personas since Alan Cooper's 1999 book, "The Inmates are Running the Asylum." This book by Tamara and John not only covers in detail all the "how-tos" of persona creation and use, but also talks about why personas are effective. The chapters about storytelling and the psychological aspects of personas provide concrete and insightful evidence for why personas are an effective approach to user-centered design.
The book is well written, clearly organized, and a very easy read. Also, the use of case studies and stories from the field expand on the book's contents, and provide some interesting examples of how personas are being used today.
I strongly recommend this book to any academic researcher in the HCI area, and any design professional that is currently using or trying to use personas in their organization. This is the book that will further legitimize and popularize the use of personas.

putting the user first

I recently worked on a project with one of the authors (Tamara Adlin) that utilized the Persona Lifecycle spelled out this book. What an amazing process. The principles that Adlin and Pruitt have articulated in this process help bring user centered design methodologies front and center. This is especially useful in highly matrixed or cross functional organizations that have trouble working effectively togeher. You end up with one common vocabulary - around your users/customers - that help everyone in an organization stay focused on who they are designing/developing for. The process helps to diffuse the politics and eliminate mixed signals on strategy -- which is useful to people at all levels in an organization.
