Reviews
"This book is a joy--fun and of utmost importance."
— Tom Peters
"May herald the beginning of a change in user habits and expectations, a change
that manufacturers would be obliged to respond to. Button pushers of the world,
unite!"
— Los Angeles Times
"We are all victimized by the natural perversity of inanimate objects. Here
is a book at last that strikes back both at the objects and at the designers,
manufacturers, and assorted human beings who originate and maintain this perversity.
It will do your heart good and may even point the way to correcting matters."
— Isaac Asimov
