Reviews
"If you're looking for a wisdom-filled and affirming discussion of the business of design, you're in for a treat. Bethune offers up sage life, career, and day-to-day work strategies honed throughout his successful design and business career. All wrapped up under the umbrella of a 'nonlinear"'approach. So, what does 'nonlinear' mean in practice? It's all in the way we approach our work, Bethune says... Nonlinear celebrates the nuances and complexities of our work. At its core, the book is a celebration of asking questions ("the subversive act of unpacking") and searching for what's missing--in the process, in the data, in your research, in a brief." -- Print Magazine "Kevin inspires us to embrace the unexpected journey of innovation. His vision empowers us not just to meet the current needs of our audiences, but to take them places they've yet to imagine." --Greg Hoffman, author of Emotion by Design "Kevin lays out a new, imperative mindset for designers. Often interwoven with personal stories, his lessons and advice are accessible and essential for today's innovators." --Ivy Ross, Chief Design Officer, Consumer Devices at Google; coauthor of Your Brain on Art " Nonlinear readers will walk away with a mindset for even bolder innovation and a desire to design a better world. Kevin's compelling journey will inspire creativity and strategic thinking in designers at every career stage." --Mauro Porcini, Chief Design Officer, PepsiCo; author of The Human Side of Innovation "Kevin's Nonlinear is a masterclass in how curiosity fuels innovation. It provides a roadmap for leveraging design to solve today's most pressing challenges, pushing us to think beyond the obvious and embrace the unknown." --Iddris Sandu, Founder of Spatial Labs Inc. "Kevin's Nonlinear is the essential guide to help you fall in love with and trust the process--instead of getting sidetracked by fleeting certainty." --Natalie Nixon, PhD, CEO of Figure 8 Thinking, LLC, "If you're looking for a wisdom-filled and affirming discussion of the business of design, you're in for a treat.

Synopsis
From the acclaimed designer and bestselling author of Reimagining Design , a nonlinear approach to navigating design's nuances in pursuit of meaningful innovation. In Nonlinear , Kevin Bethune shows us that we can reject trodden paths of digital or physical product creation by taking advantage of a nonlinear approach. To unlock meaningful innovation that breeds new and novel outcomes, he writes, teams need to embark on a journey into the proverbial forest of ambiguity, the result of a rapidly converging, dynamic, and exponentially changing landscape. The journey is less about getting it right or wrong, and more about using the information we have at our disposal to understand our choices and unlock new learning. Nonlinear begins by taking the reader through Bethune's professional zigs and zags. The author explains that while his interdisciplinary leaps were rare at the time he took them, these varied experiences unlocked perspectives about design and innovation that uniquely prepared him for our present moment and for the future. He then showcases the role of quantitative information to strategically frame and set boundary conditions for our creative exploration, and he highlights the role of qualitative insights to provide the substance necessary to begin crafting solutions that address unmet needs. The book also identifies accelerants (or flywheels) that will help readers as they reflect on their journey through the forest of ambiguity, with a specific emphasis on diversity, a key theme for Bethune, a Black man who has navigated new horizons. Readers will enjoy having the chance to customize the author's perspectives and make them their own at both an individual and a team level.

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well-packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.
