"The book is wonderfully alive, and full of examples to instruct, amuse or horrify. The enthusiasm and verbal exuberance of Papanek as he rips away the pretensions, hypocrisises and vices of the real world are always stimulating." Arthur Conway, New Scientist"
作者简介Although most of Dr. Papanek's work had been in product design, his background included architecture and anthropology. He taught or chaired departments at universities in Canada, the United States, Denmark, Sweden and England. In recognition of his work to create a closer understanding between the impoverished Third World and technologically advanced countries, he was nominated for the Alternative Nobel Prize. In 1981 he received the ICSID/Kyoto Honours Award for his development of a communications device for the governments of Tanzania and Nigeria. He was also senior design consultant to Volvo of Sweden, to the government of Papua New Guinea and to a medical lighting firm in Australia. From 1981 he was permanent J.L. Constant Distinguished Professor at the School of Architecture and Urban Design at the University of Kansas in Lawrence. Dr. Papanek died in 1998.

内容清晰，物流很快。但，纸张和胶粘真的让我喜欢不起来。
拿到很开心，但是是平装封面 红色的那种 小失望
While this book covers the larger focus of industrial design, its message is important for all designers. It proposes the "radical" idea that designers should become aware of the social context of their work. This is such a special gem, I can't do any better describing it than its own Table of Contents: Part One: How It Is 1. What is Design?: A Definition of the Function Complex 2. Phylogenocide: A History of the Industrial Design Profession 3. The Myth of the Noble Slob: Design, "Art", and the Crafts 4. Do-It-Yourself Murder: Social and Moral Responsibilities of Design 5. Our Kleenex Culture: Obsolecence and Value 6. Snake Oil and Thalidomide: Mass Leisure and Phoney Fads Part Two: How It Could Be 7. Rebel With a Cause: Invention and Innovation 8. The Tree of Knowledge: Biological Prototypes in Design 9. Design Responsibility: Five Myths and Six Directions 10. Environmental Design: Pollution, Crowding, Ecology 11. The Neon Blackboard: Design Education and Design Teams 12. Design for Survival and Survival Through Design: A Summation
Everything ok, excellent quality, arrive on time and a good price!
Very inspiring and should be considered as required reading for any responsibly thinking product designer. Of course, some of those product designers might decide to not become product designers after reading the book.
Many citizens think design means fashion, color choices or the latest consumer trends. Papanek clearly shows that real design should be about improving the way our world, and our society should work. This is a must read for any student of design, engineering or technology. In fact, it should be required reading in all engineering and design schools. Parakeet diapers and examining the way maple keys spread seeds...priceless.
It is amazing how some voices can come from the past and still be contemporary. This is a must read for anyone studying or practicing design. Papanek was a visionary in the truest sense of the word and offers answers to issues that researchers in the field of design for sustainability are still searching.
