Editorial Review:

An inspiring resource for design students, professionals, or anyone else who could benefit
from a fuller appreciation of the design process, By Design vividly shows how design affects
our most significant human activities. A network of engrossing stories illuminate the process
as it applies to architecture, industrial design, interior design, fashion design, graphic
design, and the design of business and social situations. It is the perfect accompaniment to
a broad area of foundation courses for designers-in-training. This new edition of the popular
classic features updated examples of timeless ideas, illustrated in full color. A concluding
chapter discusses what has, and has not, changed since the first edition, examining
design responses to radical technological development and shifting consumer demands.

A Great Book For Anyone in the Product Business:

This outstanding book is said to be aimed at design students, professionals, or anyone else who could benefit from af uller appreciation of the design process. And yes, I have to agree, it is.
More important to me however is the presentation in this book of the essence of what design is all about. This is the kind of book that the financial people behind a new big hotel should read. It is the book that a product development engineer should read before he starts working with his industrial designer.... more info

Great introduction to the meaningful aspects of Design:

A must have for all Designers interested in understanding how products are ultimately judged within their context-by thier effectiveness and usefulness.The six levels of Design Caplan outlines is a great measuring stick for all disciplines of Design and Engineering.
