The book covers design thinking in four clear chapters, each with its own focus:
- Thinking: discover how design thinkers approach problems and which six fundamental attitudes are involved.
- Working: insight into the phases of the design process and the distinction between a structured process and the more 'messy' cycle of design thinking.
- Project Approach: gain practical experience with design thinking by participating yourself.
- Toolkit: an overview of methods and tools that you can use in a design process.
