"An important way in which the volume contributes to psychology is by documenting the varied ways in which human factors research can be applied to Web design.... the articles are reasonable in their scope and written in a very approachable manner....For a field that changes so quickly, an edited handbook is probably the best way of bringing together all of the necessary material that needs to be covered with the appropriate blend of perspectives.

Practitioners will appreciate the examples and guidelines, and researchers will appreciate the straightforward, no-nonsense style and extensive references sections following each chapter. ... the editors and authors have done a very nice job providing an introduction to, overview of, and pointers to relevant sources about each topic area."-Kelly Caine, Michele Degges, & Matthew Holfelner, ergonomics in design, July 2013More details
