"Human Interface Guidelines: The Apple Desktop Interface" by Apple,
pub 1987 Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-17753, 144 pages, softcover, $14.95

   contains about 6 pages of "Recommended Reading".  A good book.


Also volumes I, IV, and V of Inside Macintosh each contain a chapter
on the subject, vol. I is the best on general issues.

I am currently reading Interfacing Thought, edited by Johm M. Carroll,
published by The MIT Press, 1987, ISBN 0-262-03125-6, 370 pages, hard
cover.  Looks interesting, no other comments yet.
