Sean Adams is the chair of graduate and undergraduate graphic design at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena, California.

"From posters to cars, design is everywhere. While we often discuss
the aesthetics of design, we don't always dig deeper to unearth the
ways design can overtly, and covertly, convince us of a certain way
of thinking. How Design Makes Us Think collects hundreds of
examples across graphic design, product design, industrial design,
and architecture to illustrate how design can inspire, provoke,
amuse, anger, or reassure us."
- Dexigner
"Sean Adams strips off the blinders to deconstruct the design
process with clear, clean visuals and snappy prose....A playful,
edifying addition to any design bookshelf, How Design Makes Us
Think is an inspirational resource for beginning designers or
graphic design firms. Reading it is like donning a pair of magic
spectacles that empower nondesigners to decode and critique the
hidden messages that surround us."
- Foreword Reviews
