Dear Nigan, Many thanks. This is a gem. I hadn't realised there was this original paper on 'RittleThink' of which the other paper is the son of. It's interesting to see how many ideas considered new to designers and design researchers now were seen a normal and everyday design theory by Rittel in 1971. I'm thinking particularly of the idea of seeing design as finding the best solution in solution space, and thus seeing design activity primarily as one of choosing.
