Résumé:

"The editors note that the aim of this book was to produce "a series of critical papers from academics and designers on the issue of sustainablity and its meaning for designers. The 'idea' of sustainability is contested and there is a tendency for it to be treated as a purely technical issue focused on environmental performance. This tendency has been challenged by artists and designers who approach it from social, cultural or spiritual dimensions"--Publisher's website.
