Produktbeschreibung

Demographics show that at least two of every five people vary from the norm in height, weight, and width. Yet customarily, designers design for adults of regular size with standard abilities. Written by an expert in human factors and ergonomics, this work explores designing for population groups that do not meet customary standards in age, size, and abilities.
