For example, Experts generate alternatives is illustrated by the same few balloons turned into a set of very different balloon animals. The text is engaging and accessible; the drawings are thoughtprovoking and often playful.Organized into such categories as Experts reflect, Experts are not afraid, and Experts break the rules, the insights range from Experts prefer simple solutions to Experts see error as opportunity. Readers learn that Experts involve the user; Experts take inspiration from wherever they can; Experts design throughout the creation of software; and Experts draw the problem as much as they draw the solution.One habit for an aspiring expert software designer to develop would be to read and reread this entertaining but essential little book. The insights described offer a guide for the novice or a reference for the veteranin software design or any design profession.A companion web site provides an annotated bibliography that compiles key underpinning literature, the opportunity to suggest additional insights, and more.
