Description: Comfort And Design : Principles And Good Practice, Hardcover by Vink, Peter (EDT), ISBN 0849328306, ISBN-13 9780849328305, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Your keyboard is up under your chin or down around your knees. You lose one percent of your body fat every time you struggle out of your sofa. When you drive your economy car you wish you were the size of a squirrel. Vink (ergonomics and innovation, TNO, The Netherlands) and his international cast of contributors describe their research on these and other common problems of discomfort, starting with general and specific theories of comfort. They examine reducing discomfort at work, including in building trades, office work, and assembly, in seating, in using hand tools, and in using vehicle interiors. They also include a very helpful guide in the costs and benefits of developing comfort products. Although they do not mention "universal design," a means of providing accessibility to the physically challenged that benefits all potential users, practitioners of that art may also find this information useful.
