It moves beyond the traditional scope of human-computer interaction (HCI) and is based on the concept of active learning that integrates theory and practice.

Another textbook. This was actually a very good book and contained loads of information. I don't think that the book was organized very well and sometimes the information seemed to be repetitive.

The information was good but the presentation was dry and repetitive.
