Description: Rethinking Sitting, Paperback by Opsvik, Peter, ISBN 0393732886, ISBN-13 9780393732887, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Opsvik, a Norwegian industrial designer, examines the ergonomics of chairs and re-evaluates the act of sitting as an optimal function of the human body. The author includes photographs and illustrations to discuss the theory behind sitting as a movement and posture, and then investigates chair design in terms of size, support, tilting and placement within particular work and living environments. While designers and ergonomic engineers will value the author's discussions of balance and the Balans principle, general audiences can appreciate the unusual designs and practical thought behind this volume.
