Beware Wet Paint by Alan Fletcher

Surveying thirty-five years of Alan Fletcher's work, this book is an essay upon the design process as undertaken by a tireless and gifted individual. The thinking behind his solutions and methods are illustrated by a range of examples each accompanied by a full commentary from Jeremy Myerson.
