Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The authors argue that any account of what is often called the user experience must take into consideration the emotional, intellectual, and sensual aspects of our interactions with technology. They offer a new approach to understanding human-computer interaction through examining the felt experience of technology.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
