One of my very favorites, #9 on Lou's list, is “Universal Principles of Design; 100 ways to enhance usability, influenece perception, increase appeal make better design decisions, and teach through design” by Lidwell, Holden, and Butler.

I try to keep my work bookshelf simple since I only have so much room available…

Usability Inspection Methods (Nielsen/Mack)
Prioritizing Web Usability (Nielsen/Loranger)
Contextual Design (Beyer/Holtzblatt)
The Visual Display of Quantitative Information (Tufte)
Writing Software Documentation (Barker)
Sketching User Experiences (Buxton)
Design Basics Index (Krause)

I supplement these books with volumes and CDs of past CHI conference proceedings and tutorials. If I was smart, I would have kept the thousands of pounds of art, design, and history textbooks from art school. I’m kicking myself now.

No, those are all my UX-related books. And I’ve read most of them, so I keep them at work mostly as reference material.

I’ve read a couple of the ones on your list. Never have been impressed with Cooper’s stuff.

Matthew, I find it so interesting that our shelves are almost completely different (except for Designing Visual Interfaces, Don't Make Me Think, and Contextual Design -- which I lent to someone years ago and never got back) when we do such similar work. I'll definitely dig into some of the ones you have here. Do you have others at home? Is there a difference between the books you display and the ones you read?
