   None No current Talk conversations about this book.  lbgouveia | May 17, 2016 |  it explained information architecture s2584984 | Oct 3, 2010 | Known as the famous 'Polar Bear book' (because of the polar bear on the cover), or the IA bible. I read a library copy of this book in 2006, and then went through my own copy of the 3rd edition again in 2007. It is a very in-depth book into IA and how it applies to the web. There's a lot of material to cover, so it takes a while to read if you want to absorb it all, especially if you never heard of the ideas before. But it's a very useful book, and also serves as a good as a reference while modelling out large sites. Perhaps less useful for fairly small-scale sites, but still appropriate. (If you haven't been exposed to the material before, it also gives you a greater appreciation for library sciences.)

 [3rd edition] "Those who already have the 2nd edition might take a look and decide whether they want this edition or to wait for the next - no doubt in another five years there will have been many more changes to incorporate."  [2nd edition] "The first edition of this book could be typified as a 'how to do it' manual: this second edition includes that element, put puts 'doing it' in the context of the organization, prodding the information designer to think more about the organizational and/or business context." [1st edition] "This is a useful introduction to a complex area of work in the field of Web site design, and it fills a gap." Belongs to Series
