The History of Human Factors and Ergonomics
ISBN: 9780805827682 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Human factors/ergonomics (HFE) as a discipline has grown by accretions rather than having been developed systematically and deliberately. Therefore, this book's goal creates a formal conceptual structure for HFE. It is intended as a contribution to cultural history because (a) ours is a technological civilization, and (b) one cannot understand technology outside of the various disciplines that make up that technology. A disciplinary history is highly specialized, but the author maintains that HFE is distinctive in being the only discipline that relates humans to technology. Other behavioral...

The Cognitive Artifacts of Designing
ISBN: 9780805855111 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) In this dynamic review and synthesis of empirical research and theoretical discussion of design as cognitive activity, Willemien Visser reconciles and integrates the classical view of design, as conceptualized by Herbert Simon's symbolic information processing approach, with modern views of design such as the situativity approach, as formulated by Donald Schon. The author goes on to develop her own view on design, in which design is most appropriately characterized as a construction of representations.

Comfort and Design: Principles and Good Practice
ISBN: 9780849328305 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) With so much attention placed upon comfort in the sale of many goods and in relation to musculoskeletal injuries, it is surprising that there is no generally accepted notion of comfort or discomfort that allow them to be easily incorporated into the design process. Because of this lack of a comfort/discomfort paradigm, industry also lacks a reference linking comfort and design.
Some designers have found that the best way to engineer comfort into their products is to involve the end-user in the process. Comfort and Design: Principles and Good Practice presents cases that demonstrate the...

Yet customarily, designers design for adults of regular size with standard abilities. Written by an expert in human factors and ergonomics, Extraordinary Ergonomics explores designing for population groups that do not meet the customary standards in age, size, and abilities. Underscoring the need for...
