Toward this end, the Potomac Institute’s new volume, Quantifying Human Information Processing, makes a significant and timely contribution. More than a collection of analytical literature reviews written by experts in their respective fields, each chapter explores its subject matter for heuristics and synthesis. This book should prove valuable to both research psychologists and human-system designers. -- Ed Mulligan, University of Georgia\u003cbr\u003eMcBride and Schmorrow have made a very significant contribution to the Human Factors literature in their new edited volume. They have brought together a truly trans-disciplinary perspective that spans the field. This should be required reading for any serious practitioner or scholar. -- James L.
