"It is a book about the different ways in which 'knowing' happens in HCI. ... it is an impressive collection in terms of the level of detail and variety. ... There are plenty of references in each chapter, which are good for those who want to dive deeper. ... this is a welcome book for those with an interest in HCI. It will also be useful for any kind of research involving users and their experience." (M. Sasikumar, Computing Reviews, December, 2015)
