May want to explore updated version

There is an updated Kodak book available that includes information from both previous Volumes - "Kodak's Ergonomic Design for People at Work" by Suzanne H. Rodgers, et al (Hardcover - 2004). I have used Volume II as a teaching tool in the past and it is very good. Have not seen the new book yet.
