The English idiom "to go back to the drawing board", which is a figurative phrase meaning to rethink something altogether, was inspired by the literal act of discovering design errors during production and returning to a drawing board to revise the engineering drawing.
Early 1960s he wrote a series of books, which contributed to the establishment of systems design and systems engineering. In 1967, Gosling became Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Swansea University. From 1969 to 1971, he was Chair of the Design Research Society.
The fifth edition of this book is now used by engineering students in schools throughout the world, and has been translated into several different languages.
