HCI Models, Theories, and Frameworks: Toward a Multidisciplinary Science (Repost)

HCI Models, Theories, and Frameworks: Toward a Multidisciplinary Science
Publisher: Morgan Kaufmann | pages: 576 | 2003 | ISBN: 1558608087 | PDF | 6,5 mb
Finally-a thorough pedagogical survey of the multidisciplinary science of HCI. Human-Computer Interaction spans many disciplines, from the social and behavioral sciences to information and computer technology. But of all the textbooks on HCI technology and applications, none has adequately addressed HCI's multidisciplinary foundations-until now. HCI Models, Theories, and Frameworks fills a huge void in the education and training of advanced HCI students. Its authors comprise a veritable house of diamonds-internationally known HCI researchers, every one of whom has successfully applied a unique scientific method to solve practical problems.
