Items related to Man Who Lied to His Laptop, The : What We Can Learn...
Stanford Professor, Clifford Nass has spent over two decades studying problems like Microsoft's Clippy (the most hated animated character of all time) and BMW drivers' complaints about the woman's voice navigating their GPS system. Nass proposes the theory that our brains cannot fundamentally distinguish between interacting with people and interacting with devices. Using real experiments, this discussion of human interaction and its relation to technology provides an insight into an increasingly important part of life.

Review:
"If Dale Carnegie had been a Google engineer, this is how he would have written "How to Win Friends and Influence People." Cliff Nass shows us how much we can learn about people by understanding how people interact with computers."

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Counterintuitive insights about building successful relationships- based on research into human-computer interaction.Books like Predictably Irrational and Sway have revolutionized how we view human behavior. Now, Stanford professor Clifford Nass has discovered a set of rules for effective human relationships, drawn from an unlikely source- his study of our interactions with computers.Based on his decades of research, Nass demonstrates that-although we might deny it-we treat computers and other devices like people- we empathize with them, argue with them, form bonds with them. We even lie to them to protect their feelings.This fundamental revelation has led to groundbreaking research on how people should behave with one another. Nass's research shows that-Mixing criticism and praise is a wildly ineffective method of evaluationFlattery works-even when the recipient knows it's fakeIntroverts and extroverts are each best at selling to one of their ownNass's discoveries provide nothing less than a new blueprint for successful human relationships.Counterintuitive insights about building successful relationships- based on research into human-computer interaction.Books like Predictably Irrational and Sway have revolutionized how we view human behavior.
