Leonardo's laptop

Schneiderman is mostly known for his work on user interfaces and usability, which is not really what this book is about.

As the subtitle “Human needs and the new computing technologies” suggests, this book tries to point out the infinite new uses that can be thought of with computing coupled with networked technologies.

As such, it is a book in a line of many from well-known tech-speakers. And I can’t say that it really stands out.
