Design of everyday object is really great and I cannot recommend it enough.

Udacity also has a mooc that follows the book and is taught by the author

I got the book Sketching User Experiences:The workbook(different from the Sketching User Experience), don't buy that book. It also has Bill Buxton as its author, but has only some references from the original book.
Looks like the brown information are locked under an authentication :(
That's why I posted the links to the pdfs! :-)
Ahh, silly me! I was trying to go for the assignments and lectures too! Thanks!
