The Design History Reader

Few photographs, narrow focus on the decorative arts.I would not recommend it to students. Other than the bright cover, it offers little.

This is a great book for anyone interested in design history. There are foundational texts beginning at the Industrial Revolution that really set the groundwork for the rest of the book.

This is a text book. It was received slightly damaged on the lower spine, but not beyond use. Packaging could have been better.

Brand new

I read the book from the university library and ever since I have looked for a Kindle version. This book is full with references from many authors that you find it invaluable when teaching a course on philosophy of design.

I teach this subject, and this is really helpful resource.

Excellent.
