The discovery of market needs and the manufacture of a product to meet those needs are integral parts of the same process. Since most textbooks on new product development are written from either a marketing or an engineering perspective, it is important for students to encounter these two aspects of product development together in a single text.

Product Design: Practical Methods for the Systematic Development of New Products covers the entire new product development process, from market research through concept design, embodiment design, design for manufacture, and product launch. Systematic and practical in its approach, the text offers both a structured management framework for product development and an extensive range of specific design methods. Chapters feature "Design Toolkits" that provide detailed guidance on systematic design methods, present examples with familiar products, and conclude with reviews of key concepts.

This major text aims to turn the often haphazard and unstructured product design process into a quality-controlled, streamlined, and manageable procedure. It is ideal for students of engineering, design, and technology on their path to designing new products.

The paradox of successful design is to have a system for being novel. This offers a classic view of how to channel creativity and organize the chaos of invention. Much of this is common sense, but it is useful to have the wisdom in one place. I got this book because my design methods class professor kept quoting it, and the lessons taught are valuable, practical, and still applicable many years after the book was written.

best product design book i've ever read

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 2, 2011

i've noticed that the older books get (date of publishing), the more information they seem to have. this book is a prime example.
A lot of books about design theory and process just dabble around, trying to fill 300 pages with stuff you could read in a magazine article.
The author knows what he is talking about and thoroughly explains everything, with diagrams, illustrations, charts etc.

i.e. REAL, USEFUL, INFORMATION, not another sermon from someone trying to unlock the 'secrets of innovation' by sharing 'new ways of thinking'.

This book proposes, explains and proves that a carefully planned and executed process makes for best selling products.
