Design of Everyday Things has some interesting anecdotes and ideas throughout, but I found the style very long-winded and dull. Haven't finished it yet though.
Similar book, The Evolution of Useful Things by Henry Petroski, was a bit more to the point, even though there is also plenty of philosophy on design, success and failure.
