Designers increasingly need to present information in ways that aid their audience’s thinking process. Fortunately, results from the relatively new science of human visual perception provide valuable guidance.</p> <p>In this book, Colin Ware takes what we now know about perception, cognition, and attention and transforms it into concrete advice that designers can directly apply. He demonstrates how designs can be considered as tools for cognition – extensions of the viewer’s brain in much the same way that a hammer is an extension of the user’s hand. The book includes hundreds of examples, many in the form of integrated text and full-color diagrams.</p> <p>Experienced professional designers and students alike will learn how to maximize the power of the information tools they design for the people who use them.</p></div></span></div></div></div></div><div class="_16jmeqbik _16jmeqbkg _16jmeqb1s _16jmeqb18 _16jmeqb0 _16jmeqb70

design of information displays. He combines interests in both basic and applied visualization research and he has advanced degrees in both computer science (MMath, Waterloo) and in the psychology of perception (PhD,Toronto). He has published over 160 articles in scientific and technical journals and at leading conferences. Many of these articles relate to the use of color, texture, motion and 3D displays in information visualization. His approach is always to combine theory with practice and his publications range from rigorously scientific contributions to the Journal of Physiology and Vision Research to applications oriented articles in ACM Transactions on Graphics and ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction. Fledermaus, the leading visualization software used in oceanography, originated in software developed by him and his graduate students.</span></span></div><div class=""><div

Designers increasingly need to present information in ways that aid their audience’s thinking process. Fortunately, results from the relatively new science of human visual perception provide valuable guidance.\u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003eIn this book, Colin Ware takes what we now know about perception, cognition, and attention and transforms it into concrete advice that designers can directly apply. He demonstrates how designs can be considered as tools for cognition – extensions of the viewer’s brain in much the same way that a hammer is an extension of the user’s hand. The book includes hundreds of examples, many in the form of integrated text and full-color diagrams.\u003c/P\u003e \u003cP\u003eExperienced professional designers and students alike will learn how to maximize the power of the information tools they design for the people who use them.\u003c/P\u003e","coverImage":"https://secure-ecsd.elsevier.com/covers/80/Tango2/large/9780123708960.jpg","copyright":{"imprint":"Morgan Kaufmann","year":2008},"numberOfPages":256,"variants":[{"sku":"EST_GLB_BS-SKU-9780123708960_Physical","medium":"Print","fileFormats":[],"format":"Paperback","isbn":{"formatted":"978-0-12-370896-0","stripped":"9780123708960"},"status":"Available","isSellable":true,"publishedDate":"2008-04-04","firstPublishedDate":"2008-04-04","numberOfPages":208},{"sku":"EST_GLB_BS-SKU-9780080558417_SDRM","medium":"Electronic","fileFormats":["PDF","EPub","Mobi"],"format":"eBook","isbn":{"formatted":"978-0-08-055841-7","stripped":"9780080558417"},"status":"InStock","isSellable":true,"publishedDate":"2010-07-27","firstPublishedDate":"2010-07-27","numberOfPages":256}],"publicationDate":"2008-04-04","publicationYear":2008,"edition":1,"contributors":{"editors":[],"authors":[{"firstName":"Colin","lastName":"Ware","priority":1,"role":"Author","biography":"Colin Ware is the world’s leading authority on the perceptual principles underlying the effective design of information displays. He combines interests in both basic and applied visualization research and he has advanced degrees in both computer science (MMath, Waterloo) and in the psychology of perception (PhD,Toronto). He has published over 160 articles in scientific and technical journals and at leading conferences. Many of these articles relate to the use of color, texture, motion and 3D displays in information visualization. His approach is always to combine theory with practice and his publications range from rigorously scientific contributions to the Journal of Physiology and Vision Research to applications oriented articles in ACM Transactions on Graphics and ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction.
