  • Illustrates innovative trim-and-scale down products via TRIZ techniques, which is definitely superior to conventional techniques in 'savings' as it believes in en-cashing idle or so-assumed useless resources
  • Serves as a ready reckoner for independent learners and freelance design practitioners.
  • Provides a very high Figure/Illustration to Text ratio
  • Describes novel concepts about trimming and lean theory
  • Provides fascinating contents which will convert a new reader to a prospective customer
  • Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book

The book is a valuable research tool-kit for innovators, amateur & professionals alike. Additionally, College & University faculties on Engineering, who organize yearly workshops internationally will find hundreds of novel themes to choose from. Some teachers might just secretly buy this book to introduce out-of-box brain-teasers in classroom to add fizz to normal (at times boring) lecturing.
The book can be used as main/add-on textbook towards following courses: (1) Master's degree programs on design innovation worldwide and (2) Senior undergraduate courses in industrial, engineering & product design.
