Students find this book very informative and easy to use. Most of
all, they like samples of tech packs with how to measure
information.
*Tania Pazelsky, Wood Tobe-Coburn School, USA*
This is a highly effective book. It is so straightforward and
useful to students in understanding how technical design fits into
the product development pipeline. It would be a great resource on
the job
*Carol Salusso, Washington State University, USA*
Overall, [Technical Sourcebook for Designers] is more than I can
ask for in one book. This book makes me want to take an entirely
different approach to the way I teach this class.
