Matt May's book, In Pursuit of Elegance: Why the Best Ideas Have Something Missing, is being released tomorrow. I read an advanced copy a few weeks ago, and could not put the book down! Matt traveled the world to find cases where something was made to be elegant through subtractive means. He strategically uses stories to drive home his ideas.
This book is incredibly easy to read, even though it tackles some deep subject matter. Check out his blog by the same name. Mark Graban of Leanblog.org has posted a video podcast with Matt. This work is entirely different than any business related book I've ever read. It is a book about elegance written elegantly.
