Critic Reviews
“The Big Problems require something from designers, namely that we give up our isolationist tendencies toward moments of personally gratifying genius and instead focus on team-based monster slaying, much like how it takes hoards of scientists and engineers working for Boeing to conquer modern flight."”
"A very unusual and wild illustrated book about diverse ways of creative collaborations. With a lot of cases and interviews"
