I recommend this volume to those who feel it is time to move beyond traditional formats of behavioral task analysis. There are quiet a few insightful propositions regarding such a transition in these chapters. -Personnel Psychology Overall, by setting out the vast array of CTA [cognitive task analysis] approaches and putting them in context, the editors provide the strongest support for human professionals to choose the right approach for the question at hand. The book is an important addition to the human factors professional's library and will probably have a long shelf life. -Ergonomics in Design The various case studies are written by leading-edge CTA analysts and collectively cover all the recent developments in CTA. Cognitive Task Analysis is an important book. The book accurately presents the state of the CTA field, featuring representative contributions from a distinguished group of CTA professionals, and it explicitly or implicitly articulates the goals that must occupy the CTA profession at workshops and conferences over the next few years. -Contemporary Psychology The editors believe that this book represents 'the state of the art in cognitive task analysis from a methodological perspective' and I whole-heartedly agree. In summary, this is a very readable book, crammed full of theory, methodologies and advice. It is a must-read for anyone looking to research or use the CTA in any domain. It is inspirational and definitely wortha ready by student, lecturer, and practitioner alike. -Ergonomics
