Ambient Findability: What We Find Changes Who We… door Peter Morville
For a textbook this book was actually pretty good.
Intertwingled is intertwingled
Information isn't singular. Boundaries are artificial, and not particularly helpful. Understanding comes through withstanding inputs crashing from all directions. This is the premise that Morville beautifully illustrates in Intertwingled. The book rambles from personal memoir to philosophy to information management treatise. Chapter markers are artificial. Understanding comes through assimilating Morville's varied inputs. It's a worthy effort.… (meer)

I have the Free Sampler download, which consists of the front matter and Ch. 1 only.
This is a book that will make you think twice. Or even more. It discusses the relationships between us humans and that of structures. We create meanings as humans to make sense of the things that surrounds us but do we fall short of the possibilities that lie outside of the frameworks we create?
There are many examples and Peter Morville eloquently weaves together information from several fields, drafting in well-established authorities from many fields.
His most important contribution is his questioning of established practices. He tries to place the user and the employee at the heart of the user experience. We need to consider what is the culture of a company because to create lasting change within an organisation we "need to look for the levers" as he suggests but if you go against the system, the system will push back. The notion that everything is intertwingled means there are relationships to be fostered. It is not me against you. It us working together moving forward.
Staying true to Peter's principles evident throughout this book I will not try to impose my meaning on you with regards to the book.
I can only recommend that you read it.
