Emotional design: why we love (or hate) everyday things
'Emotional design' articulates the profound influence of the feelings that objects evoke, from our willingness to spend thousands of dollars on Gucci bags and Rolex watches, to the impact of emotion on the everyday objects of tomorrow.
The author draws on a wealth of examples and the latest scientific insights to present a bold exploration of the objects in our everyday world. 'Emotional design' will appeal not only to designers and manufacturers but also to managers, psychologists, and general readers who love to think about their stuff.
