Understand the Utility and Limitations of Modern Technology
In their trademark, eloquent style, the authors explain the
application of a human-centered approach to the design, testing,
and evaluation of work systems by considering the interrelated set
of physical, cognitive, social, organizational, and other relevant
human factors. Their elemental, but comprehensive, treatment of the
subject matter provides an authoritative and archival reference of
basic theoretical and practical knowledge that will help enhance
human performance and reduce the undesirable effects and unintended
consequences of many human interactions with technology and the
organizational environment. Small enough to carry along to work
sites, with simple and clear illustrations, the book examines how
to improve performance and reduce the undesirable effects and
unintended consequences of many human interactions with technology
and the work environment.
