Through narratives and case studies spanning the brilliant history of engineering, Madhavan shows how the concepts of prototyping, efficiency, reliability, standards, optimization, and feedback are put to use in fields as diverse as transportation, retail, health care, and entertainment.

Enjoyed Dr Madhavan’s overview of the engineering mindset. The perspectives and viewpoints were interesting with characters ranging from Hitchcock to the engineers that created the cellular phone and camera. Much more engaging than other works that cover engineering!
