Three books I plan to read in Design Aesthetics

I attended a training organised by Pusat Transformasi USM in Penang between 20 Aug and 22 Aug. While staying in Penang, I bought three books from Popular Bookstore which I think would enhance my knowledge in design aesthetics. Herewith the books:

Living with Complexity 《好设计不简单：和设计师联手驯服复杂科技，享受丰富生活》

written by Donald Norman, translated by 卓耀宗

To me, this book is in sync with Hekkert's Unity in Variety principle of aesthetic pleasure. While it is not as interesting as Norman's (2006) Emotional Design, I believe it deserves the reading time I am going to spend. I will enrich my notes on this topic, as the four principles of aesthetic pleasure was regarded as the most difficult topic to learn by my students. 

The second book I chose is a book translated from Japanese, titled 《文字的准则：玩出绝妙好设计》or the Guidelines for Texts. There are numerous English books on Typography, but it is quite rare to see any for Chinese and Japanese characters in Malaysia.  This book was written by 伊达千代 (Chiyo Date) and Takahiko Naito. As I don't read Japanese, I read a translated version:

The third book I bought is Product Design or 《好设计！打动人心征服世界》 by jointly written by Paul Rodgers and Alex Milton. 

I particularly like the chapter on Design Education, which is closely related to my profession as a lecturer teaching design courses. Can't wait to share my understanding of these books with my students!
