Reviews
From the reviews:
"This book explains the current state of knowledge in the field of programming psychology and the psychology of software design, reuse, and maintenance. Although largely concerned with academic research, the material presented may be of interested for both the accomplished and novice software practitioner. The research results given should … have some impact on ergonomic specifications of programming tools, in order to ameliorate the compatibility between tools and user. … The book is a lucid account of the cognitive problems in everyday software design … ." (R. Horsch, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 987 (12), 2002)
"The book is especially dedicated to two different groups of readers – computer professionals on the one hand and psychologists on the other hand. … fortunately the author knows well both disciplines and the result is compact and not schizophrenic. Computer professionals can find in this book a lot of interesting ideas and confirmation of the sensed but in computer literature concealed coherence. … The book can be useful also for a third yet unnamed group of readers – researchers in the area of design theory." (Tomas Brandejsky, Neural Network World, Vol. 12 (2), 2002)
