"Design History has become a complex and wide-ranging discipline.
It now examines artefacts from conception to development,
production, mediation, and consumption. Over the last few decades,
the discipline has developed a diverse range of theories and
methodologies for the analysis of objects. Design History presents
the most comprehensive overview and guide to these developments.
The book first traces the development of the discipline, explaining
how it draws from Art History, Industrial Design, Cultural History
and Material Culture Studies. The core of the book then analyses
the seminal methodologies used in Design History today. The final
section highlights the key issues concerning knowledge and meaning
in Design. Throughout, the aim is to present a concise and
accessible introduction to this complex field. A map to the
intellectual landscape of Design History, the book will be an
invaluable guide for students and a very useful reference for
scholars"--Provided by publisher.
