Über den Autor


David Walker trained as an architect in the UK. He gravitated to teaching architecture and design. In his middle career, he became a specialist in design management and innovation. Much of this work aimed to make designers more business-like and businessmen more creative. Creativity and Business 'A foot in both graves' some might think. He has lived for extended periods in Sydney, Boston, Ann Arbor, Hong Kong, and Auckland--where he now lives. He draws for pleasure and therapy. And for the same reasons, he is the servile companion of two cats. In this book the two realms come together.
