Sinossi

They have revised and updated each of the original chapters, rearranged some of them for a more natural flow, added a new section of tutorials, and provided updated recommended readings.

New in the Second Edition:

Two new applications chapters: Transportation and Aging-in-Place
New Tutorials section provides hands-on guidance for critical issues
Re-organization of Design Guidelines section allows for better flow of topics

The new Tutorials section begins by focusing on general issues that need to be considered when involving older adults generally in research and usability studies and more specifically in focus group studies.

Given the prevalence of multimedia in today‘s world, the authors include a tutorial on design considerations for multimedia products in general but especially for older adults.
