Vintage Interactions
I’ve recently became enamored with vintage office machines. I’ve caught a bit of eBay fever – 8 years late according to my colleagues – from bidding on and winning an old adding machine, a 302 Series Telephone (designed by Henry Dreyfuss), and a turn-of-the-century Royal typewriter. Like many others, I find vintage devices appealing because their operation is mostly self-apparent.

Usability Testing of Medical Devices
by Michael Wiklund, Jonathan Kendler, and Allison Strochlic
"A comprehensive guide to Human Factors testing for medical device development. This book is an excellent resource to guide your human factors decision making throughout the development process. A must have, as today's medical devices become more and more targeted to users without formal medical training."
Dean Kamen, founder of DEKA Research & Development
