Hello Ana
I think you have already got some very good references, but I still want to
add two:
- Wilson, D, Timothy. (2002) 'Strangers to Ourselves. Discovering the
Adaptive Unconscious'. Belknap Press. Cambridge, MA.
- Ramachandran, Vilayanur. (2003) 'The Emerging Mind'. Profile Books (BBC,
The Reith Lecture series). London.
You may also access my PhD thesis: 'The Affective Sustainability of
Objects', through www.borjesson-mk.se and/or read some of my papers on
http://thefoundobject.canalblog.com
The best of luck to you.
Kristina (Borjesson)

Subject: References on "design and emotion" and assistive devices
Dear all,
I am a PhD student currently conducting research on the emotional impact of
assistive devices in people´s lives.
Somehow I couldn’t manage to find any book, article or paper that addresses
this issue. I came across several references on “design and
emotion”, “assistive devices” and “universal design”, but none of them
actually
brings all terms together.
I would truly appreciate it if you could help me with any material you know
of.
Thanks,
Ana Correia de Barros
