FROM AMAZON.COM: This is a completely revised second edition of Design for the Real World, which has since its first appearance twenty years ago, become a classic.

In this revised edition, Victor Papanek examines the attempts by designers to combat the tawdry, the unsafe, the frivolous, the useless product, once again providing a blueprint for sensible, responsible design in this world, which is deficient in resources and energy.
