诺曼博士用诙谐的语言讲述了许多我们日常生活中常常会遇到的挫折和危险，帮我们找到了这些问题的关键，即产品设计忽略了使用者在一定情境中的真实需求，甚至违背了认知学原理。诺曼博士本书中强调以使用者为中心的设计哲学，提醒消费者在挑选的物品，必须要方便好用，易于理解，希望设计师在注重设计美感的同时，不要忽略设计的一些必要因素，因为对于产品设计来说，安全好用永远是竞争的关键。

尽管有很多图书都展示了平面设计作品，但很少能对设计作品的概念、策略、视觉问题的解决进行深度剖析；也很少有图书介绍如何将设计原理具体运用于设计实例，从而达到预期的沟通目的。所以，读者只会肤浅地理解如何操作设计项目，以及各个视觉设计元素如何组合以传达预期信息。 作为《设计元素——平面设计样式》的后续本，《完成设计一从理论到实践》主要关注设计的基本方面和原理，展示专业设计者如何运用这些技巧作出创意决策，从而实现有效的视觉传达效果。书中还运用实际案例，深入浅出地说明如何运用视觉原理。本书为读者创设了一个较为正规的教学模式，使读者理解和掌握图片、版式、文字及色彩的组合与搭配，以及表现整体设计的方法与技巧。

In this book Paul Rand said to be one of the world's leading graphic designers, speaks about the contemporary practice of graphic design, explaining the processes and passion that foster good design and indicting fadism and trendiness. Illustrating his ideas with examples of his own graphic work as well as with the work of artists he admires, Rand discusses such topics as: the values on which aesthetic judgements are based; the part played by intuition in good design; the proper relationship between management and designers; the place of market research; how and when to use computers in the production of a design; choosing a typeface; principles of book design; and the thought processes that lead to a final design. The centrepiece of the book consists of seven design portfolios - with working drawings and ultimate choices - that Rand used to present his logos to clients such as Next, The Limited and IBM.
