The Innovation Game
4book icon:

The Innovation Game by Armelle Le Corre and Gerald Mischke is a book for systems geeks, a rare and specialized audience. In it, the authors build up a set of interlocking systemic models to describe the processes of innovation. The ultimate product is an innovation pipeline that allows you to experiment with a wide array of variables to see how they might influence the outcomes. I cannot tell you if the model is accurate (somehow I doubt that it can be), but like any good model, it doesn't have to be accurate to be revealing and thought provoking.

Web Design on a Shoestring
4book icon:

Carrie Bickner's Web Design on a Shoestring is a very smart book. Bickner, an experienced nonprofit webmaster who now works for the New York Public Library, doesn't fall into the usual foolish penny pinching that many people on a limited budget seem prone to. Nor does she succumb to the common nonprofit notion that staff time is infinite and we can always ask people to work harder. Instead, she takes a frugal total cost approach to web development and maintenance. She advocates investing in planning, in usability, in standards, and in lightweight content management. I highly recommend this book.
