Paperback. Condición: Very Good. A revolutionary guide to designing humane, eco-conscious homes, buildings, and cities of the future. It is estimated that the earth's population will expand to an unprecedented nine billion people over the next century. This explosion in population is predicted to place further stress on our environment, deplete our natural resources, and lead to increases in anxiety and depression due to overcrowding. In this visionary and uplifting book, Teresa Coady offers readers new hope. Rebuilding Earth is her blueprint for designing and building the cities, buildings, and homes of tomorrow, resulting in more conscious, sustainable, and humane living. Coady shows us how we can shift from an outdated Industrial-Age framework to a more humane, Digital-Age framework. This revolutionary approach will enable communities to harness various forms of green energy and reduce the amount of material needed to build infrastructure while contributing to a healthier planet (and society). We can then experience a new sense of purpose, health, and happiness. Meaningful and lasting change, the author tells us, can only come through designing interconnected communities that are vibrant, resilient, and communal. Unlike most predictions of doom and gloom, Coady presents a refreshingly optimistic view of humanity and its future. This book will appeal to those in the construction, design and development finance industries, as well as anyone interested in improving their lives through understanding the connections between the environment and health.…

Hardcover. Condición: New. 1st Edition. Contents: 1. Introduction: designing 'human-centred' regulations. 2. Donation of organs: framework of a human policy. 3. Female foeticide: even inhuman acts need human rules. 4. Road safety: regulatory 'nudges' for human drivers. 5. Rules for human smokers and drinkers. 6. Income tax law: changing the default settings. 7. Crime control: guarding the guardians. 8. Bureaucracy: playing the game of homesty. 9. Dedicated bureaucracy: the carrot or the stick? 10. Performance pay for the bureaucracy. 11. Indian bureaucracy: thinking outside the box. 12. Labour laws: the devil's in the detail. 13. Public services: moral hazard of self certification. 14. Ease of doing business: licence-permit raj. 15. Governance: by experts or algorithms? 16. Redesigning rules of the game: from noise to cooperation. The book points the finger at an unlikely 'whodunnit' for governance failure - the design of rules of the game. Based on the author's extensive experience and domain knowledge, the book demonstrates the relevance of a human centred policy in major areas of public policy such as donation of organs, road safety, smoking, female foeticide, licensing regulations and crime. It explains why: A zero tolerance policy may end up in zero compliance; Banning the sale of loose cigarettes is not a good idea if we want to discourage smoking; Mandating speed governors can be more effective that putting rash drivers in jail; Performance pay and similar incentives are unlikely to work for the bureaucracy.…

Hardcover. Condición: As New. The purpose of this book is to advance the human -factors persuasion by showing how user benefits can be derived when the powerful human factors analytical tools are used to develop proper man -machine interfaces. While most human factors books present methods and human engineering data that can be highly useful in design work, they provide only limited examples, case studies and illustrations of human - factors applications in industry and consumer - product design. Designing for humans, addresses these often neglected areas in precise terms. The content covers functional characteristics of the human organism, its capabilities and limitations in a machine environment, and how to develop human perceptual and performance design criteria. And much more .…
