Editorial Reviews

Review

"The Culture of Design offers both a very exciting and an innovative contribution to the field . . . this should be a popular textbook for art and design courses. It could also be an important text to support the increasingly visual turn influencing cultural studies, sociology and material and spatial culture courses."

-- Review

Review

"An excellent text, clear, well thought out and lucidly written; the balance between theoretical material, background information, and detailed analysis of examples, is very good; and it concerns an issue-design in the period of its deep convergence with advertising-which will be of interest not only to design specialists and students, but also to a broader readership in cultural studies and sociology."
