- Summary:
- In Sight is the first ever book to address the problems posed by graphic, product, packaging, and architectural/environmental design for sensually and physically impaired people. This book includes comprehensive guidelines [approved by international authorities on the subject] on how to improve accessibility and take account of the needs of disabled people without compromising design integrity. In the light of new European and American legislation which demand a access to many products and services regardless of disability [the case of the blind man in the US who won entertainment web site is an example), In Sight is an invaluable resource for professional designers and an essential teaching aid.
