Many of us are lucky enough to be living in a post-peak-stuff world. We're past the point where we actually need anything else. We've all read about the psychology experiments which show us that increasing our possessions can't make us any happier. And this makes shopping for Christmas presents increasingly difficult. We'll trawl the shopping centres or catalogues, recognising that anything we might buy will be either unnecessary or unwanted, if not both. You can't buy happiness, of course... and we all learnt many years ago that money can't buy you love. But what if you discovered that you could buy improvements to your own personal qualities? Personality upgrades, if you like. What do you want to be given more of? Inspiration? Restraint? Optimism? But who knows you well enough to buy it for you? What would you buy them?

This book provides readers with a timely snapshot of ergonomics research and methods applied to the design, development and evaluation, of products, systems and services. It gathers theoretical contributions, case studies and reports on technical interventions focusing on a better understanding of human machine interaction, and user experience for improving product design. The book covers a wide range of established and emerging topics in user-centered design, relating to design for special populations, design education, workplace assessment and design, anthropometry, ergonomics of buildings and urban design, sustainable design, as well as visual ergonomics and interdisciplinary research and practices, among others. Based on the AHFE 2021 International Conference on Ergonomics in Design, held virtually on 25–29 July, 2021, from USA, the book offers a thought-provoking guide for both researchers and practitioners in human-centered design and related fields.
