Acknowledgment

I am pleased to acknowledge the assistance of AM + A Design/Analysis Intern Carmen Doerr, of Germany, who conducted initial research during June-July 2003 on the study of emotions in design, product and service development, culture, and user-interface development. I am also indebted to Brave and Nass (2003) for several of the issues they raise in their chapter.
