Sometimes designed objects reject their users: a computer mouse that doesn't work for left-handed people, for example, or a touchscreen payment system that only works for people who read English phrases, have 20/20 vision, and use a credit card. These mismatches are the building blocks of exclusion. In Mismatch, Kat Holmes describes how design can lead to exclusion, and how design can also remedy exclusion.

Our brains evolved to solve the survival problems of our Stone Age ancestors, so when faced with modern-day situations that are less extreme, they often encounter a mismatch. Our primitive brains put us on the wrong foot by responding to stimuli that - in prehistoric times - would have prompted behaviour that was beneficial. If you've ever felt an anxious fight-or-flight response to a presenting at a board meeting, equivalent to facing imminent death by sabre-toothed tiger, then you have experienced a mismatch.

Er will einfach nur vergessen. Ihr Job ist es, all seine Geheimnisse zu lüften. Austin Fields ist der neue Spitzenspieler der Hopeville Dragons. Er hat keine Zeit für Ablenkungen, erst recht nicht für die ebenso hartnäckige wie hübsche Sportjournalistin Joyce, die einfach nicht aufhören kann, Fragen zu stellen. Wenn es nach seiner Mitbewohnerin (aka Großmutter) geht, sollte er sich dem blonden Wirbelwind mit dem frechen Mundwerk einfach öffnen. Das kommt gar nicht in Frage, denn er will mit seiner Zeit in Chicago nur noch abschließen und nach vorne sehen.

Miss Ruth Hawthorn helps support her fatherless family the only way she can: doling out love advice in a local newspaper column under an assumed name, The Swan. When she receives a lucrative request for an in-person consultation from someone signed O, her brother persuades her to go to London with him, teaching him what he needs to know in order to survive the short appointment.
