YES! it's good; get it if you have any interest in end-user
programming (of which I consider livecoding a cornerstone).
'The Humane Interface' by Jef Raskin is also interesting, especially
with the renewed commercial interest in Zooming User Interfaces (e.g.
iPhone / Core Animation, Microsoft's Photosynth and FTIR table called
"Surface", etc.)
