“The recollected reflections by one man on his incredible career in human factors. Chapanis will long be remembered as one of the pioneers of the human factors discipline.”
ERGONOMIC ABSTRACTS

“Tremendously entertaining (something one almost never finds in HFE texts). It is, I think, also tremendously sad to come to the end of the book. I am selfish in saying that there should never be any end. But then how would the next generation proceed, always to be hobbled by its predecessors?”
DAVID MEISTER, author of The History of Human Factors and Ergonomics

“An amazing professional career. Chapanis has touched every facet of the profession.”
MARK SANDERS, author of Human Factors Engineering

“A detailed and revealing personal account of the varied and extensive professional activities of a giant in our profession. Chapanis is candid in his reflections and convincing in portraying human factors as a practical design activity.”
TOM SHERIDAN, MIT
