Autorenporträt
Josh Clark is a writer, designer, and developer who helps creative people clear technical hassles to share their ideas with the world. As speaker and consultant, he has helped scores of companies build effective websites and mobile apps. When he's not writing or speaking about clever design and humane software, he's building it. Josh is the creator of Big Medium, friendly software that actually makes it fun to manage a website. He's also the author of Best iPhone Apps and iWork '09: The Missing Manual, both published by O'Reilly. Before the rise of the Web, Josh worked on a slew of national PBS programs at WGBH-TV in Boston. He shared his three words of Russian with Mikhail Gorbachev, strolled the ranch with Nancy Reagan, hobnobbed with Rockefellers, and wrote trivia questions for a primetime game show. Now Josh makes words and spins code at his hypertext laboratory globalmoxie.com. He divides his time between Providence, Rhode Island, and Paris, France.
Rezensionen
"Leicht lesbar verfasst und mit vielen Illustrationen ausgestattet, richtet sich das Buch vornehmlich an Entwickler und Designer, aber Produktverantwortliche können sicherlich ebenso davon profitieren. Da technische Details nicht im Vordergrund stehen, kann auch der interessierte Anwender einen Blick riskieren." -- c't 2010, Heft 23

"'Tapworthy' ist [...] Programmierhandbuch und keine Einführung in die Entwicklung von iPhone-Apps. Ich würde es als eine Art Leitfaden für gutes Anwendungsdesign beschreiben. [...] Den Beleg für die Praxistauglichkeit seiner Vorschläge liefert Clark in Form zahlloser Beispiele gleich mit. Insofern ist 'Tapworthy' Plichtlektüre für Jeden, der sich für die Gestaltung von mobilen Anwendungen interessiert." -- KaffeeKlatsch, August 2010
