Inclusive Design for a Digital World
Apress (Verlag)
979-8-8688-1819-6 (ISBN)
This expanded edition reflects the rapid evolution of the tech landscape. It features up-to-date guidance on the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.2), the European Accessibility Act, and international standards. It also explores the intersection of AI and accessibility, examining both the promises and risks of machine learning, automated tools, and algorithmic bias. You’ll learn how to ask better questions, challenge assumptions, and design for real human experiences, especially for those historically excluded.
Inclusive Design for a Digital World, Second Edition isn’t a checklist or a fix-it manual, it’s a collection of reflections, case studies, questions, and examples that help you design with more people in mind from the start. Whether you’re working on a subway kiosk, an AI chatbot, a learning app, or a video game, inclusive design is about recognizing who’s being left out and doing the work to build systems that allow more people to participate, contribute, and belong.
