Methods commonly used in the field of Human-Computer Interaction in settings like the workplace may not easily translate to the richness and complexity of domestic life.  This book documents new ways in which researchers are studying domestic life, as well as designing and evaluating technology in the home.  Each chapter is a candid discussion about methods that were successfully used for research studies with a focus on the challenges that the researchers faced and the best practices they learned.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e1: An Introduction to Studying and Designing Technology for Domestic Life\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eI.
