(BQ) Part 1 book “Human–Computer interaction” has contents: The human, the computer, the interaction, interaction design basics, hci in the software process, implementation support, evaluation techniques, universal design, design rules, and other contents. | The excitement of these changes is captured in this new edition, which also looks forward to other emerging technologies. However, the book is firmly rooted in strong principles and models independent of the passing technologies of the day: these foundations will be the means by which today’s students will understand tomorrow’s technology. The third edition of Human–Computer Interaction can be used for introductory and advanced courses on HCI, Interaction Design, Usability or Interactive Systems Design. It will also prove an invaluable reference for professionals wishing to design usable computing devices. � A revised structure, reflecting the growth of HCI as a discipline, separates out basic material suitable for introductory courses from more detailed models and theories. � New chapter on interaction design adds material on scenarios and basic navigation design. � New chapter on universal design, substantially extending the coverage of this material in the book. � Updated and extended treatment of socio/contextual issues. � Extended and new material on novel interaction, including updated ubicomp material, designing experience, physical sensors and a new chapter on rich interaction. � Updated material about the web including dynamic content. � Relaunched website including case studies, WAP access and search. Accompanying the text is a comprehensive website containing a broad range of material for instructors, students and practitioners, a full text search facility for the book, links to many sites of additional interest and much more: go to THIRD EDITION Alan Dix is Professor in the Department of Computing, Lancaster, UK.
