Dear Colleagues,
With respect to my earlier research request, I should have been more clear. We will published reading lists and the “classics,” but we will not be publishing names or personal data.
My apologies ...
We will still welcome your answers to the four questions at the bottom of this note. All we need is a short, quick reply.
We will use names and emails to identify and locate the people whose work is advancing the field. We will share the compilation of “must-read” books and articles, and the compilation of classics.
Please use the space beneath each question for your answers and post the reply to Heico Wesselius — the CSIRO Research Fellow — off-list at:
[log in to unmask]
We will publish the collated responses in the New Year.
Yours,
Ken

Four Questions:
1) Who is doing work in design research or design practice that promises to advance the field in a significant way?
2) What key books or articles should everyone read to understand advanced research and best practice in the design field today?
3) What books in the design field do you believe deserve to be labeled as “classics” that form the foundation of thinking in the field?
4) Please name several people whose thinking and research you feel is particularly useful and promising. We are building our board of reviewers and we want your advice on people who will add value to the community. Please give names and institutional affiliations. If you have email addresses, we will welcome them.
