Excellent book on understanding design,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Designing Engineers (Inside Technology) (Paperback)
I teach engineering design at a large state university, and this book was wonderfully written and entertaining. The author provides, through excerpts from three in-depth ethnographic studies, insights into how design is a negotiated process between many participants. This is not an engineering book, rather it is a study of the culture and daily lives of engineers.One caveat to this review is that while the book describes the design process and highlights its inherent uncertainty, one would likely need to have extensive experience with design to really appreciate all this book has to offer. Students and novices might find the book illuminating or might lack the context to fully appreciate the uncertain world-view the author presents. |
