The 1980s and 1990s have seen a growing interest in research and practice in information systems design and development from a human-centered perspective. This interest is accelerated by the increase in organizations in which the human resource provides the means to key competitive advantage. Human Centered Methods in Information Systems: Current Research and Practice is a compilation of contributed chapters by researchers and practitioners addressing the relationships between human activity, organizational issues and technology.
