Grace’s Reviews > The Design of Everyday Things > Status Update

Too verbose at the start. He makes statements of things that are clear to people today (or maybe just those who have thought of design) which do not require all the elementary hashing out. Norman also tries too hard to ensure his legacy as someone involved in HCD is preserved and spends too much space giving credit to himself. Donella Meadow’s book ‘Thinking in Systems’ is way more succinct & readable.
