Academic framework for Human Computer Interaction that works its way out from theories of theatre. Not an easy read but a useful framework for anyone working in theory of HCI.

I feel the grounding in theatre ia one of the strongest for HCI and allows reaching back as far as Aristotle.

The topic of this collection -- design research -- is broad enough to cover field study methods, explorative design, market and brand issues as well as trend research and strategies for design research in professional settings. The book provides an excellent overview of useful concepts and techniques available to the designer in inquiry, exploration and assessment activities, generally applicable in interaction design as well as in other design fields.

Reflections on the design process and recommendations on how to manage it are brought together with visions of the future and examples of (at the time) innovative interaction design ideas. The book is still inspirational and serves as a useful complement to the prevalent focus on analysis and evaluation in HCI.
