Great comprehensive overview on design
18 Mar 2008
Format:Paperback
This is a great book that reveals the roots of modern design showing how modern design evolved from traditional craft and was as much influenced by industrialization as it was a reaction against the industrial revolution of the victorian era. It is required reading in my History of Design course.
