Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book introduces Human-Engaged Computing (HEC), a pioneering thought that reimagines the relationship between humans and computers. Unlike traditional Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), HEC offers a philosophical and practical foundation for designing technologies that prioritize human survival, flourishing, and spiritual growth.HEC represents a paradigm shift, positioning technology as a medium to enhance human capacities rather than simply as a tool. Central to the HEC thought is the Human Capacity Framework, which integrates Biophysics, Intellect, and Xin. Xin/¿, a concept rooted in Eastern philosophy, emphasizes inward transcendence and harmony-dimensions often neglected in conventional HCI approaches. By addressing pressing issues such as digital alienation and mental health challenges, this book provides a unified design philosophy that fosters human well-being and enlightenment. The book is structured into two parts: theoretical foundations and practical case studies. Together, these sections guide readers in creating innovative computational designs that open new pathways for technological advancement while prioritizing human-centered values.This book is a must-read for professionals and students across diverse fields, including HCI, computer science, philosophy, psychology, and sociology. Policymakers concerned with technology's societal impact will also find it invaluable.Key features: - Integrates Eastern 'Xin' philosophy, redefining human-computer relations beyond traditional Western HCI for enhanced well-being. - Presents a holistic Human Capacity Framework (Biophysics-Intellect-Xin), crucial for designing technology that truly elevates human potential. - Addresses 'Antibiosis,' technology's negative impacts on human survival, offering a theoretical lens for sustainable design. - Provides concrete design principles for 'Engaging Computers,' fostering human awareness and enlightenment through future technology. - Inspires and envisions new paradigms and possibilities for HCI, AI, ICT, and the general design of artifacts.…
