The Universe of Design : Horst Rittel's Theories of Design and Planning PDF
by Jean-Pierre Protzen, David Harris
Description
This book examines the theoretical foundations of the processes of planning and design.
When people – alone or in groups – want to solve problems or improve their situation, they make plans.
Horst Rittel studied this process of making plans and he developed theories – including his notion of "wicked problems" – that are used in many fields today.
From product design, architecture and planning – where Rittel’s work was originally developed – to governmental agencies, business schools and software design, Rittel’s ideas are being used.
This book collects previously unavailable work of Rittel’s within the framework of a discussion of Rittel’s theories and philosophical influences.
