Of all the books I read on the subject, Joel Spolsky's "User Interface
Design for the 
Programmers"<http://www.amazon.com/User-Interface-Design-Programmers-Spolsky/dp/1893115941>is
the one that is still sticking out for me.

You will find nothing formal in this book, but if you have ever wondered how
come all interfaces written by programmers are horrible, this book will show
you exactly why and how to remedy that.

There is also Don't Make me
Think<http://www.amazon.com/Think-Common-Sense-Approach-Usability/dp/0789723107>,
which shows the problem under a slightly different angle, but interesting
nevertheless.

Finally, when you're trying to lean about GUI's, it helps to see what *not*
to do, and the iarchitect.com web site is great for that. Sadly, that web
site seems to have gone down, but it's apparently been mirrored
here<http://homepage.mac.com/bradster/iarchitect/shame.htm>
