A short and very accessible primer explaining how designers think in order to create.

How do designers think? The concept that designers have and use ‘designerly’ ways of knowing and thinking emerged in the late 1970s alongside new approaches in design education, and was first clearly articulated by Professor Nigel Cross, one of the most internationally respected design researchers. Designerly Ways of Knowing is a revised and edited collection of key lectures and publications by Professor Nigel Cross on the nature of design activity and expertise, and the evidence for design cognition as a particular and essential aspect of human intelligence. It explores the following topics: the nature and nurture of design ability creative cognition in design the natural intelligence of design design discipline versus design science expertise in design As a timeline of scholarship and research, and a resource for understanding how designers think and work, this book will interest researchers, teachers and students of industrial and product design, design practitioners and managers.

This book is also available through the Introductory Engineering Custom Publishing System.

Concentrates on basic approaches to design for a wide range of engineering products emphasizing problem formulation, conceptual and embodiment design as well as a mix of creative and systematic techniques which together can be used to resolve product design problems. Completely updated and revised this edition contains a new chapter on design for quality and numerous new examples.
