This book explores the role of metaphor in the system design process. It examines the ways in which the metaphors that designers use in design conversations become embodied in the systems that they are creating. It assumes that by making designers aware of their use of metaphor, they can better cope with the complex and dynamic nature of the challenges presented in design in a broadly ecological sense. The book focuses on inviting designers to address the question, “How do our joint improvisations with metaphors become embodied in the systems that we are creating?”
