Phenomenology of perception.

From the Publisher: 
A Question of Identity 
Life on the Screen is a fascinating and wide-ranging investigation of the impact of computers and networking on society, peoples' perceptions of themselves, and the individual's relationship to machines. Sherry Turkle, a Professor of the Sociology of Science at MIT and a licensed psychologist, uses Internet MUDs (multi-user domains, or in older gaming parlance multi-user dungeons) as a launching pad for explorations of software design, user interfaces, simulation, artificial intelligence, artificial life, agents, "bots," virtual reality, and "the on-line way of life." 
Turkle's discussion of postmodernism is particularly enlightening. She shows how postmodern concepts in art, architecture, and ethics are related to concrete topics much closer to home, for example AI research (Minsky's "Society of Mind") and even MUDs (exemplified by students with X-window terminals who are doing homework in one window and simultaneously playing out several different roles in the same MUD in other windows). Those of you who have (like me) been turned off by the shallow, pretentious, meaningless paintings and sculptures that litter our museums of modern art may have a different perspective after hearing what Turkle has to say. 
This is a psychoanalytical book, not a technical one. However, software developers and engineers will find it highly accessible because of the depth of the author's technical understanding and credibility. Unlike most other authors in this genre, Turkle does not constantly jar the technically-literate reader with blatant errors or bogus assertions about how things work. Although I personally don't have time or patience for MUDs,view most of AI as snake-oil, and abhor postmodern architecture, I thought the time spent reading this book was an extremely good investment.

The Practice Of Everyday Life

Ethnography, Fieldwork, and Design: Preliminary Remarks

The features we present of the augmented bowl have been designed to exploit our commonsense understandings and everyday uses of container-like objects. As we’ll explain, in choosing the features, we’ve attempted to build on the ways in which physical content can be casually added to or retrieved from a bowl with little to no thought. We’ve also tried to capture the way bowls loosely contain their physical content, so as to enable an informal and to-hand solution for managing digital media.

Building Bowls for Miscellaneous Media

Gilovich and Ross have produced a book which extols the virtue of one of the social sciences. Social psychology, they argue, helps one understand ‘the most common and powerful influences on people’s behaviour.’ (p4). These influences are not, in their view, at all obvious. We are subject to a variety of errors in the ways we think, in how we comprehend and how we judge; all this can significantly affect our decision-making. This might not matter when the decisions are inconsequential, but if they affect our life chances, the relations between Nation States, or the future ecology of the planet they do – all examples from the book. This is, then, not a textbook. Rather, it’s a guide to understanding our cognitions and how to make them better – or our use of them better. As they put it, the book is for those who want to be ‘the wisest in the room’. Hence, the eponymous title. In short, it is a self-help book for those who want to make better judgements, and want recommendations in this regard. These recommendations do not come from nowhere, but are grounded in science, Gilovich and Ross explain, and as a consequence, if taken heed of, will make decisions better.

Selling Social Psychology to the Self-Help Reader

Interaction modalities with document technologies have, until recently, been quite limited. Current advances have led to the emergance of a host of new techniques for navigation, marking and annotation, and these are allowing users of documents to get to grips with documents more effectively than before. This paper illustrates how sociological investigations can provide insights into what these new interaction modalities might be. © John Benjamins Publishing Company.
