Wired for Speech : How Voice Activates and Advances the Human-Computer Relationship
ISBN: 9780262640657 / Angielski / Miękka / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Interfaces that talk and listen are populating computers, cars, call centers, and even home appliances and toys, but voice interfaces invariably frustrate rather than help. In Wired for Speech, Clifford Nass and Scott Brave reveal how interactive voice technologies can readily and effectively tap into the automatic responses all speech -- whether from human or machine -- evokes. Wired for Speech demonstrates that people are "voice-activated": we respond to voice technologies as we respond to actual people and behave as we would in any social situation. By leveraging this...

Shades of Loneliness : Pathologies of a Technological Society
ISBN: 9780742530034 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. To varying degrees, loneliness has us all in its grip. In this incisive and controversial book, Richard Stivers rejects the recent emphasis on genetic explanations of psychological problems, arguing that the very organization of technological societies is behind the pervasive experience of loneliness. The extreme rationality that governs our institutions and organizations results in abstract and impersonal relationships in much of daily life. Moreover, as common meaning is gradually eroded, our connections to others become vague and tenuous. Our ensuing fear and loneliness, however, can be...

ISBN: 9781558607521 / Angielski / Miękka / 658 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych.

This book provides a roadmap that will allow readers to put complete working applications on the Web, display the results of a process that is running elsewhere, and...
