Book Summary
A look inside the minds of engineers, and a primer on designing efficient and
innovative solutions for work and everyday life.
Engineering comes in many forms. Dubai's Burj Khalifa— the world's tallest
building—looks nothing like Microsoft's Office Suite, and digital surround sound

in fields as diverse as transportation, retail, healthcare, and entertainment.
