Engineering Psychology and Cognitive Ergonomics

Volume 1: Transportation Systems
Herausgeber: Harris, Don

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book describes some of the most recent advances and examines emerging problems in engineering psychology and cognitive ergonomics, bridging the gap between the academic theoreticians, who are developing models of human performance and practitioners in the industrial sector, responsible for the design, development and testing of new equipment and working practices.
