Summary:
"Compared with traditional design emphasizing on the functionality of products, designers today turn an eye on the ergonomic aspect of products to meet the increasing need of people today requiring more scientific and comfortable products. To echo this double-need, Ergonomics in Product Design introduces the basic knowledge of ergonomics with rich illustrations, aiming to explain the discipline in a more accessible way. It further enhances the reader's understanding by elaborate case studies and abundant product designs which come with useful ergonomic diagrams."--Publisher's description.
