A propos de cet article

Oversized hardcover, [xvi] + 894 pages, NOT ex-library. Weight 1.49kg. A repaired 5cm incision along the upper spine (rear board), with non-sticky glue marks. Interior shows little wear, clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, securely bound. Faint handling marks on page edges externally. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This volume forges a critical link between the internal landscape of the human brain and the external demands of the modern world, offering a comprehensive exploration of human capability from two distinct yet complementary perspectives. The first half delves deep into the burgeoning field of neuroergonomics, moving beyond theoretical concepts to showcase the practical application of cutting-edge neuroscience in real-world scenarios. It provides a detailed look at how techniques like optical brain imaging, electrophysiology, fMRI, and near-infrared spectroscopy are used to objectively measure and model cognitive states such as mental workload, attention, and fatigue. Chapters demonstrate how this data can be used to predict operator errors in high-stakes tasks like piloting unmanned aerial vehicles, to develop adaptive automation that responds to a user's mental state in real time, and to assess the effectiveness of novel training platforms like NeuroGaming. The discussion also ventures into the crucial domain of neuroethics, considering the implications of accessing the private brain. The second half of the collection expands this focus outward, applying human factors principles to a uniquely broad range of "special populations". This goes far beyond the conventional scope of disability studies to include trainees, military personnel, and even users in developing nations who may be unfamiliar with certain technologies. This section is a treasure trove of tangible case studies and design solutions, addressing specific challenges such as the ergonomic evaluation of military exoskeletons, the creation of haptic learning systems for the visually impaired, the design of workstations for an aging workforce, and even cross-cultural analyses of everyday activities like laundry and personal hygiene. By uniting the micro-level analysis of neural activity with the macro-level challenges of inclusive and specialized design, this book serves as a foundational toolkit of methods, models, and case studies essential for researchers, engineers, and designers aiming to create systems that are not just functional, but are truly centered on the diverse realities of human performance.…
