I just received this interesting announcement with a reference to design thinking literature:

"Dear Colleagues,

This is to let you know that I have just posted "The Bibliography Behind A Theory of Design Thinking" at independent.academia.edu/charlesburnette. It lists over 50 years of publications organized by date to allow scanning for emphasis on different topics as they emerged since the early sixties. It provides an extensive listing of references in cognitive science of relevance to design as well as listing my published work as they occurred over the years. All the listings contributed in their own way to the theory. I hope people will find it a useful reference.

Charles Burnette"
