Written by experts and practitioners in the field, this collection focuses on two major aspects of personal computing: the role of IT in personal information and time management, and decision-making within groups. The book's key theme is the premise that it is essential to start with the people themselves and devise technologies which are right for them. The contributors consider the practical experience of work psychology and group dynamics, and then relate it to successful IT applications for improved personal productivity. The technologies discussed include personal digital assistants and pen-based computing, and the applications covered range from manufacturing on the shop floor to uses in and outside the office.
