This book was one of several books recommended by my research advisor in graduate school. One idea in the book I found interesting and profound is "the principle of accumulation of design," which explains how a complex system can evolve from a basic and simple design. This idea not only helps me better understand design research in my area — human-computer interaction, but also offers a holistic view of the evolution of scientific research and the relationship among different research disciplines.
