This new edition undergraduate introductory textbook follows the motto of the previous versions: "Solid information, easy-to-read, easy to understand, easy to apply." The aim remains the same: "Human engineering" workplaces, tools, machinery, computers, lighting, shiftwork, work demands, the environment, officers, vehicles, the home – and everything else that we can design to fit the human. The new edition is up-to-date in content and language, in data and illustrations. Like previous versions, this book is for students and professionals in engineering, design, architecture, safety and management and to everybody else who wants to make work safe, efficient, satisfying, and even enjoyable.

Recenzijas

"Kroemer“s book is a canon in the field of ergonomics. It gives an easy-to-read, but still comprehensive introduction to many of the different aspects of ergonomics. The chapters contain a number of tables, thorough information of relevance for designers and engineers. The book will help designers and engineers to designing systems and environments that fit the human body and mind." Kjell Ivar Ųvergård, University College of Southeast Norway

"This book is definitely a must have for beginners. In addition, it is a great book to have for an update to the most recent topics in ergonomics and human factors engineering. This book provides depth and rigor contents yet its easy to understand." Satoshi Muraki, Kyushu University, Japan
