In the 20 years since the publication of the first edition of
Bodyspace the knowledge base upon which ergonomics rests has
increased significantly. The need for an authoritative,
contemporary and, above all, usable reference is therefore great.
This third edition maintains the same content and structure as
previous editions, but updates the material and references to
reflect recent developments in the field. The book has been
substantially revised to include new research and anthropometric
surveys, the latest techniques, and changes in legislation that
have taken place in recent years.
New coverage in the third edition: Guidance on design strategies
and practical advice on conducting trials Overview of recent
advances in simulation and digital human modes Dynamic seating
- Recent work on hand/handle interface Computer input
devices
- Laptop computer use and children's use of computers
- Design for an aging population and accessibility for people
with disabilities
- New approaches to risk management and new assessment tools,
legislation, and standards
As the previous two editions have shown, Bodyspace is an example
of the unusual: a text that is a favorite among academics and
practitioners. Losing none of the features that made previous
editions so popular, the author skillfully integrates new knowledge
into the existing text without sacrificing the easily accessible
style that makes this book unique. More than just a reference text,
this authoritative book clearly delineates the field of
ergonomics.
