Institute for Systems Engineering (IfSE) released the new Don't Panic series book Don't Panic! The Absolute Beginner's Guide to System Design, featuring Tim Rabbets and Mike Wilkinson.

The Institute for Systems Engineering (IfSE), formerly INCOSE UK, is a Professional Engineering Institution licensed by the Engineering Council. IfSE acts as the UK Chapter of the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE), a not-for-profit membership organisation founded to develop and disseminate the interdisciplinary principles and practices that enable the realisation of successful systems. IfSE holds an annual conference and a set of training events each year; has active regional, working and special interest groups; and publishes a variety of books, guides and other products. Despite its focus on UK-specific needs, IfSE attracts members from all around the globe. The ‘flavour’ of Systems Engineering most prevalent in the UK has developed into an open and inclusive practice that facilitates the application of Systems Thinking and Systems Engineering principles in domains outside of the traditional domains of defence and aerospace. In recent years, the membership of IfSE has widened significantly from its roots, expanding to include domains such as: automotive, rail, energy, civil engineering, space, medicine, and security.
