(Preface) 'This informal book covers much new ground in addressing design students and those concerned with their education. Norman Potter navigates this argument through the rocks and shallows of the present controversy, offering encouragement to those who are still seeking their own bearings. He argues for a reappraisal of attitude and priorities that may help students work more fully in the present, yet in an awareness of the fluid professional situation that awaits them.

The role of the designer is analysed, and in particular in respect to the needs of his education. What is a designer also discusses in detail some essential aspects of procedural technique that a beginner should certainly know about, and that seasoned workers may wish to reconsider. Norman Potter is a designer whose work is well known to architects in Great Britain and abroad, and has been exhibited at the Milan Triennale. He was a tutor at the Royal College of Art and until recently Head of the Construction School in the West of England College of Art, Bristol.'
