4.0 out of 5 stars Education for all professionals on intuitive insight, 10 Jun 2000
This review is from: The Reflective Practitioner: How Professionals Think in Action (Paperback)
Schon provides information on a subject that many practitioners are aware of but that few know how to put into words; intuition, what it is, and its regular use in daily professional practice. He gives voice to the practical aspects of intuitive practice and reflection in action that professionals from all genres utilize.

4.0 out of 5 stars A must read for self-aware practitioners, 23 Aug 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Reflective Practitioner: How Professionals Think in Action (Paperback)
In this book, Schon gives us a language for understanding professional practice. Because the sum of what a professional knows is greater than the sum of what he is aware he knows -- let alone the totality of what he can articulate -- there is a hidden world of practitioner competence. I found Schon to be a little repetitive and his examples difficult to fully conceptualize. However, his discussion of the Technical Rationality model and his vignettes of five professions provide a framework which may be applied to the practice of any profession. I believe that readers of this book can enhance their self-awareness as professionals and artists.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Reflective Practitioner, 19 May 2004
By Sara Worth (London, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Reflective Practitioner: How Professionals Think in Action (Paperback)
This is the first book on reflexive practice that I have read and it seemed to cover the topic comprehensivly. I had heard of Donald Schon as the Father of Reflection-in-action. Unfortunately it was not a particularly easy read; although some effort was made to include anecdotes, the text could be more fluent. I was really hoping for something that painted a warm, detailed and informative picture rather than a more text book type of approach.
