Abstract

In The Design of Future Things, best-selling author Donald A. Norman presents a revealing examination of smart technology, from smooth-talking GPS units to cantankerous refrigerators. Exploring the links between design and human psychology, he offers a consumer-oriented theory of natural human-machine interaction that can be put into practice by the engineers and industrial designers of tomorrow's thinking machines. A fascinating look at the perils and promise of the intelligent objects of the future, The Design of Future Things is a must-read for anyone interested in the dawn of a new era in technology.

Abstract

Provocative and enlightening, Richard Sennett's The Craftsman is an exploration of craftsmanship - the desire to do a job well for its own sake - as a template for living. Most of us have to work. But is work just a means to an end? In trying to make a living, have we lost touch with the idea of making things well? Pure competition, Sennett shows, will never produce good work. Instead, the values of the craftsman, whether in a Stradivari violin workshop or a modern laboratory, can enrich our lives and change the way we anchor ourselves in the world around us. The past lives of crafts and craftsmen show us ways of working - using tools, acquiring skills, thinking about materials - which provide rewarding alternative ways for people to utilise their talents. We need to recognize this if motivations are to be understood and lives made as fulfilling as possible.

Abstract

Dit eerste deel uit een reeks van de Gentse Stichting voor Psychoanalyse en Cultuur bevat bijdragen van verschillende auteurs rond uiteenlopende aspecten van de psychoanalyse die te maken hebben met de taal. In een inleidende bijdrage focust Peter Verstraeten op de twee taaluitingen - spreken/zwijgen en schrijven - in relatie tot de psychoanalyse, en schetst hij een korte inhoud van de bijdragen. Die zijn zowel wat opzet als inhoud betreft redelijk divers: een literair essay van Arnon Grunberg over extase staat naast teksten van specialisten over de plaats van de taal in de psychoanalytische theorie en praktijk, over Freud als woordkunstenaar, over literatuur en psychoanalyse (zo is er een analyse van Charlotte Mutsaers' roman 'Rachels rokje'). Op het diepgravende en boeiende, maar complexe essay van Marc De Kesel over het lacaniaanse 'primaat van de taal' na, zijn de meeste teksten vrij kort en min of meer toegankelijk voor een ruimer publiek. Een hybride en af en toe boeiende bundel voor lezers met een interesse in psychologie, filosofie en cultuur. Met bibliografieën per bijdrage. © NBD Biblion

Abstract

Did you ever wonder why cheap wine tastes better in fancy glasses? Why sales of Macintosh computers soared when Apple introduced the colorful iMac? New research on emotion and cognition has shown that attractive things really do work better, as the author amply demonstrates in his fascinating book. He shows why the products we use should not be confusing, irritating and frustrating but must be attractive, pleasurable and fun.
