Intended as a handy reference reading for the students of Computer Science and Engineering and Computer Applications, the book delves on the concepts of Human–Computer Interface/Interaction in a bulleted format. The succinct approach of the topics gives the book a simple yet comprehensive appeal; hence making it a perfect learning tool for the students, and teaching aide for the teachers.
Divided into nine chapters and three Appendices, the book has been organized as per the course structure of any University/College.
