<p>Engineers conceive, design, implement, and operate (CDIO). ‘Think Like an Engineer’ presents CDIO and systematic thinking as a way to achieve the human potential. It explores how we think, feel and learn, and uses the latest brain research findings to help us unlock value and have a balanced life. The practical, easy to follow exercises given in the book can be used by individuals to improve their thinking and learning and by educators to empower their students to thrive for success.</p>
<p>**</p>Review
<p>"I am struck by the similarities between the approach (described in this book) and the outcomes we have seen in Yale's interdisciplinary Center for Engineering Innovation and Design, where artists and business students work alongside engineers."</p>
<p>Prof. Peter Salovey, President, Yale University</p>
<p>.</p>
<p>"This book describes how to think like an engineer - using creative formal and informal approaches - and how to arrive at optimal solutions using the CDIO process." </p>
<p>Prof. John Fothergill, Pro Vice-Chancellor, City University London  </p>
From the Inside Flap
<p>"This book is a real tour de force. It approaches the topic from the very foundations of how our human brain operates, and interacts with our senses, how we build models of our world and use these models to guide us to realise (and when necessary limit) our dreams." </p>
<p>Prof. Iven Mareels, Dean, Melbourne School of Engineering  </p>
<p>"A must read for citizens in this technological world!" </p>
<p>Prof. Ben Koo, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China </p>
<p>.</p>
<p>"The engineering CDIO process is cleverly interlaced with relevant and innovative concepts in brain function biochemistry, positive thinking, emotional intelligence, brainstorming, project management, and entrepreneurship. " </p>
<p>Prof. Pete Halley, Head of School of Chem. Eng., University of Queensland</p>
<p>"In summary an enjoyable and essential read for student scientists, engineers, and educators who want to impact society by thinking how they can develop a systematic approach to solving challenges."</p>
<p>Prof. Richard A Williams, Pro-Vice Chancellor, University of Birmingham</p>
<p>'Think Like an Engineer' presents the CDIO framework of practice in an easy to read, down to earth manner that makes it accessible not only to engineers, but to the wide public as well. The book also provides a holistic personal and professional development programme as it incorporates the latest in brain science, emotional intelligence and entrepreneurship. It is a must read for engineers, business leaders and educators in general.<br>

<p>Dr. Al-Atabi's book unlocks the conundrum of what to learn today to be relevant in the face of future challenges and opportunities that do not exist yet. He infuses his stories with an infectious passion to make an enjoyable read. Highly recommended to anyone who aspires to live a meaningful and productive life.<br>
