Research on touch and blindness has undergone rapid transformation in recent years, with dramatic developments in technology designed to provide assistance to those who are blind, and advancements in robotics that demand haptic interfaces. Touch and Blindness approaches the study of the topic from the perspectives of psychological methodology and the most sophisticated, state-of-the-art techniques in neuroscience. This book, edited by well-known leaders in the field, is derived from the discussions presented by speakers at a conference held in 2002, and presents current research in the

Dit boek is een betrouwbare kennisbron voor de mogelijkheden, maar ook soms beperkingen, van veelvoorkomende complementaire interventies. Elke supermarkt heeft tegenwoordig kruidenthee of badolie met etherische olie in de schappen staan. Veel mensen gaan naar de sauna, laten zich masseren, doen aan tai chi, meditatie of yoga. Omdat het prettig is, maar ook om gezond en in balans te blijven. Maar hoe zit het als ze hierom vragen tijdens verblijf opname in een zorginstelling of anderszins met de gezondheidszorg in aanraking komen? Inleiding Complementaire Zorg geeft de huidige stand van zaken weer rond complementaire zorg in Nederland. Het is geschreven door professionals die betrokken zijn bij de ontwikkeling van complementaire zorg, zowel vanuit het verpleegkundig beroep en het verpleegkundig onderwijs als vanuit onderzoeks- en adviesfuncties op dit gebied, aangevuld met deskundigen uit verschillende aansluitende gebieden. Dit boek is een betrouwbare kennisbron voor de mogelijkheden, maar ook soms beperkingen, van veelvoorkomende complementaire interventies. Het boek geeft een aanzet tot een beroepsinhoudelijke discussie over de plaats van complementaire zorg. Tegelijkertijd biedt dit boek praktische tips en aanknopingspunten voor zorgverleners die zich willen scholen in een of meer complementaire interventies of complementaire zorg willen introduceren in de instelling waarin zij werkzaam zijn.

Overview The International Workshop on Haptic and Audio Interaction Design was - ganized as part of the EPSRC-funded MultiVis project. The main focus of the workshop was to investigate how the modalities of sound and haptics (touch) could be used together in interaction, and what novel interfaces could be p- vided when they are used in conjunction. What are the relative advantages of each of the modalities when used alone and together? Are there reasons why haptic-based information is moreuseful in certain situations than equivalent - dio information? How can di?erent modalities be used together to create c- pelling and useful interaction with computer-based systems? We posed these questions to researchers around the world, asking them to submit novel work which sought to discover answers. Thirty papers were submitted of which 15 were accepted. Each paper was peer reviewed at least twice using an esteemed set of leading international ?gures from both academia and industry, to whom we are grateful for the quality of their reviews, time, patience and responding within our tight schedule. Thepaperspresentedattheworkshopcomefromawidevarietyofdisciplines ranging from psychology to art, showcasing how haptics and sound can improve user interaction with computers; challenging us to move beyond simple mouse and keyboard metaphors to produce interfaces for devices and applications that allow for the full range of human interactivity. Below the papers are categorized and summarized based on their application and focus.
