Once again... it's *NOT* 17 pages. It's a chapter in a book that describe getting to know your customers, and the chapter is 17 pages. Inside the chapter are all sorts of diagrams, posters and design deliverables that do a damn good job of giving designers data and information that can inform their work far better than the report format most people use to disseminate personas. -- Andrei Herasimchuk Principal, Involution Studios innovating the digital world e.
