[(The Computer User as Toolsmith: The Use, Reuse and Organization of Computer-Based Tools )] [Author: Saul Greenberg] [Oct-2012]

Cambridge Series on Human-Computer Interaction

by Saul Greenberg

The Computer User As Toolsmith describes several empirical studies from which the author has developed a computer version of a handyman's workbench that would help users work with their on-line activities. For the practitioner and interface designer, the guidelines and principles offered here are directly applicable to the rational design of new systems and the modernization of old ones. For the researcher and graduate student, the book offers a wealth of analysis and interpretation of data, as well as a survey of research techniques.
