Design managers and team members will find the revised and expanded second edition of "Managing Engineering Design" to be a practical book providing a framework of precepts for the management of engineering design projects. Features include: jargon-free language with well-tried, real-world examples; useful tips for managers at the end of each chapter; a comprehensive bibliography at the end of the book. It is also highly informative for graduate and undergraduate engineering students and ideally suited for establishing a web-based design management system for geographically dispersed teams.
"This remarkable book, based on sound empirical research and design project experience, will be an enormous help to design managers and design engineers..." Professor Ken Wallace, University of Cambridge
"The practical approach of Hales and Gooch particularly appealed to me... pull[s] together a concise package of best practice in engineering management and successfully tie together the different activities...no minor feat and I lift my hat to them."
