A propos de cet article

The book is in very good condition, the jacket is in good condition but has a fair amount of shelf rubbing and some tears to the cover, this has been taped to prevent more tearing by a previous owner. Text inside appears clean and clear throughout.

DRU is used to show how major trends and changes have affected the practices of industrial design, and how design has influence the course of events. It provides an original, well-illustrated social history of design in Britain form the austerity days of 1945, through the Festival of Britain into the sophisticated sixties.' 147 pages. 8.5 x 12 inches.
