UX on the Go: A Flexible Guide to User Experience Design is a pedagogical gift to our field. In sixteen carefully scaffolded chapters, Mara and contributors provide students and faculty alike with the practical and theoretical tools necessary to understand, manage and demystify complex project cycles, user-driven decisions, and action first paradigms. The creative challenges and UX examples in this book will define how rapidly-adjusted project cycles, user-driven decisions, and action- first paradigms are taught in our classrooms for years to come.

UX on the Go stands out as a textbook with its emphasis getting out in the field and meeting users - the people all the work is about. From beginning to end, Andrew Mara identifies the role of UX research and practical ways to include users in the entire process, engaging them and embedding their stories in the product.

In UX on the Go: A Flexible Guide to User Experience Design, Andrew Mara gives us a very clear and practical exploration of UX design. I very much appreciated his step-by-step approach to designing with the users' needs and experiences in mind.
