A bold new approach to design that will create more empathetic technology.

Emotionally Intelligent Design Book

Emotionally Intelligent Design

In this smart, playful, and provocative book, Pamela argues that emotion has become a blindspot in design, especially when it comes to technology. Emotional artificial intelligence and VR empathy promise to fix technology with more technology. The real power is in that layer between people and product—design. Whether a designer, developer, information architect, product manager, entrepreneur, chatbot script writer, AI trainer, or UXer, Emotionally Intelligent Design urges you to reconsider the emotional side of technology and suggests new ways to design with a blend of human and machine emotional intelligence.

"Designers routinely claim that design makes technology more human...Emotionally Intelligent Design shows us how we rise to that challenge.” Khoi Vihn, Principal Designer at Adobe
