    John Maeda is a super bright guy, but, like many academics, he’s not good at writing. Do not spend your money on this.

    Maeda asserts the point of view that the foundation of simplicity is the most important thing to build anything upon it, and I have to agree with that. The book is unearthing the core of what matters the most in bringing the sanity back to the world that’s becoming more complicated everyday. It’s an enormous task to untangle the invisible mess, but I’m looking forward to the more practical development based on Maeda’s thought-stream that was presented in a Zen-fashion.

    Our lives are becoming more complex and difficult to manage. Simplicity cuts through the thick of it and drives the idea of 10 Simple Rules to understand how to do it. John Maeda, provides a roadmap for simple principles that helps with molding new ways to approach complex business decisions. This is a great read for those who wish to rethink their Innovative approaches!
