(Preface) 'This is a book every designer would wish to have had in design school. And it's such a good read that it will appeal to designers from all disciplines in every stage of their career.

Professor Kees Dorst - Dutch design scholar, educator, consultant and practitioner - presents 175 provoking essays to stimulate designers to think about what they do, how they do it, why and to what effect. An exploration of design to inspire and give insight, absolutely humbug free.

Together, the enjoyable essays in this book provide a panoramic view over the subject of design. The essays are written to encourage designers and students of design to reflect upon their field. Fundamental questions are raised about the nature of design, about designers themselves, and about the role of design within the broader contexts of business and society.'
