Launching the Imagination: Preface and Intro

This reading basically discussed what design is and defined it in several different ways. On pages xviii and xix, it is defined four different ways as a verb and two different ways as a noun, which I found interesting. It's so easy to steer the term design into a box and only define it as computer based design, but there are so many elements to it. The writer also described beginners in learning design as being the most receptive and eager to learn, which is encouraging.
