Biography

Erik Hollnagel

"...for a sampling of the current state of the art in that domain, look no further. This is it."
—Ergonomics in Design

"Everything you always wanted to know about cognitive task analysis or 'cognitive systems engineering' is collected and selected by Erik Hollnagel in Handbook of Cognitive Task Design. The 31 sections of this book are written by leading researchers from all over the world. As a comprehensive source of techniques, models, and methods for cognitive task design, it provides extensive reviews of theory, tools, techniques, and discussion that are indispensable to researcher practioners in this discipline."
—HCI International NEWS

"The chapters in this book are of a very high quality. The topics addressed are at the cutting edge of HCI, ergonomics, and human factors, and this is reflected in chapters that use examples from highly specialized domains, notably aviation and the military."
