    'A bountiful cornucopia of ideas from the fertile minds of leading scholars and rising stars. A milestone volume that will be valuable to newcomers, experienced professionals, scholars and business leaders.'


    Ben Shneiderman, University of Maryland

    'Constantine Stephanidis and Gavriel Salvendy's monumental 6-volume series on Human Computer Interaction has to be required for all libraries. This massive encyclopedia of fundamental knowledge will not age, because as new technologies and methods come and go, the fundamental underlying principles (especially those of human behavior) remain unchanged.'
