"For a comprehensive understanding of the field of neuroergonomics, this is the book. The editors and contributors are distinguished researchers and this is a landmark book for this fairly young field" - Gary Kaniuk, Cermak Health Services, Doody's. "For some of us who grew up in the field of cognitive psychology, there has been a certain frustration that Our colleagues were more interested in methodological and conceptual refinement via precisely controlled laboratory studies than in translation of our efforts to real working environments.
The problems posed by Neuroergonomics-involving the reciprocal interaction of brain and physical world-not only provide ergonomics with a route to analysis of work that goes beyond traditional assessment of performance and subjective ratings, but can also enhance the efforts of basic neuroscience. This book should be on the shelf of every human factors and ergonomics researcher who cares about the future of the field.
It elaborates the promise of what might be and the effort required to complete the journey." - Marvin J. Dainoff, Professor Emeritus of Psychology and Director, Center for Ergonomic Research, Miami University. "Don't be caught without it-Parasuraman, Rizzo, and their colleagues have organized for us a conceptual framework and its interconnecting lattices of theory, methodology, and practice. Left unchecked, as technology's jumps and starts have proven to be, modern society has lost the bubble on humans' ability to harness its benefits and, unacceptably.
understand and curb its often-multifaceted risks. In delineating a more fundamental understanding of humans' evolved cognitive and sensory processes. Neuroergonomics pushes back with the necessary foundation for positive exploitation of today's scientific advances. With its convergent-technologies mantra, this book will be current for years to come. Its examples of application to automated and hybrid systems.
"agents", and complex-dynamic human-system interaction tally up to provide several courses' and disciplines' worth of expertise in one coherent, highly readable document, sure to be a reference classic." - Rene Jos. de Pontbriand. Associate Director for Research, Human Research and Engineering Directorate, U.S. Army Research Laboratory. "In this authoritative volume the world of work (ergonomics) meets the new methods and results that have been developing from cognitive neuroscience, neuroimaging, and molecular genetics.
The chapters illustrate how this mixture of science and application provides the potential for designing new technologies and improving their use by people." - Michael Posner, Professor Emeritus, University of Oregon, and Adjunct Professor. Weill Medical College, Sackler Institute "Parasuraman and Rizzo have forced us to think about humans at work in a whole new way. At First the terni "neuroergonontics" made me skeptical, but the book makes clear the importance and timeliness of this new brain-based perspective.
The editors have gathered the key authors and made a great contribution." - Thomas B. Sheridan, Professor of Engineering and Applied Psychology (Mechanical Engineering), Aeronautics and Astronautics,Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
