Interdisciplinary Interaction Design: A Visual Guide to Basic Theories, Models and Ideas for Thinking and Designing for Interactive Web Design and ... - Second Edition, Revised and Expanded

Interaction design has many dimensions; for example, this book addresses how people deal with words, read images, explore physical space, and think about time and motion, and how actions and responses affect human behavior. Various disciplines make up interaction design, such as industrial design, cognitive psychology, user interface design and many others.

My hope is that this book is a starting point for creating a visual language to enhance the understanding of interdisciplinary theories within interaction design. The book uses concise descriptions, visual metaphors, and comparative diagrams to explain each term’s meaning. Many ideas in this book are based on timeless principles that will function in varying contexts. Interdisciplinary Interaction Design: Second Edition, Revised, and Expanded (2018). This new edition has twelve new terms, corrected some mistakes, and has a fresh new cover. Hopefully, new readers will find this second, revised-and-expanded edition just as useful as the first edition published in 2012.
