Indeed, Nielsen's writing is a nice way to keep perspective on things and
may be a good place to start learning web usability concepts, but people are
very visual (clients and consumers alike) so you need to take his advice
with a grain of salt. It's great knowledge to know for reference, but not
necessarily to work/live by.
This is a more general recommendation (it's not web-specific), but still a
good read for anyone creating things that people use: "The Design of
Everyday Things" by Donald Norman.
