Review: If you could only read one book about design thinking, this is it. - This is an incredibly well written book that is accessible by anyone. With clear explanations of the key principles of the methodology, and compelling reasons why human-centered design is important, the book does a great job of explaining what design thinking is and why it's important. As someone who initially approached design thinking with a healthy degree of skepticism, this book really shook my view of how to develop new products and services. Tim Brown does a great job of laying out the methodology and providing examples of how it has been used to develop cool stuff. Perhaps the best part about this book is that it is an easy read, something you can easily digest in a weekend, and yet gets across the fundamentals of design thinking in a clear and compelling way. Can't recommend this book highly enough.
Review: Introduction in Design Thinking by CEO of IDEO - "Change By Design" is an introduction to Design Thinking written by the CEO of IDEO, the famous design firm from which Design Thinking originates. The book is about 250 pages and reads easy and relative quick. Design Thinking spreads techniques used by designers to be used for larger than typical design problems and also teaches these techniques to non-designers. So people in cross-functional teams can focus on usable well-designed and well-solved products. The book consists of two parts. The first part is an introduction to Design Thinking and the second part describes how it might affect the world. Part One introduces many Design Thinking techniques such as creating empathy, deeply understanding the customer, brainstorming, prototyping, iterating, etc. Each of these techniques is described with stories and examples. Part two starts of with design thinking in organizations but then moves towards the more idealistic space of using design thinking to do good and solve real problems in the world. Each chapter covers one topic on Design Thinking. Each topic is introduces mostly by stories related to that technique. Most of the stories are directly from IDEO. On one hand, it is nice to read the IDEO stories, on the other hand (as some other reviewers have pointed out), it makes it sometimes almost like a sales pitch of IDEO. It would have been nice to have a other stories also. The book is a nice and quick read. The stories are interesting and it provides a good introduction to Design Thinking. Four stars and recommended for everyone who wants to learn about IDEO and Design Thinking.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book well-written!
*by J***R on February 20, 2015*

Tim Brown's book is one of the best I've read in the last twenty years. It reflects the changes we've seen in the environment - the speedup of change, the adaptability required for survival and prosperity, and the widespread effect of these changes across all of economics and society as a whole. And then, Brown recommends some adaptations that are proven effective in such an environment. In effect, it is a book on design thinking. As a veteran business professor, I've seen a lot of "fad theories" come and go, but this one is one I believe will stick around because it explains not only what's happening, but offers suggestions about what to do about it. In addition, it's a pleasure to read; it's articulate, literate, and well-argued, on the basis of "real world application" evidence. It's certainly worth your time and money. I have both the physical book, and an e-copy, and I've read both several times, usually learning something new every time.
