The Nature and Aesthetics of Design

By David Pye

Professor Pye establishes a basic theory of design, in a lucid style and in jargon-free language. This book is of special importance to crafts artists, for Pye himself was an architect, industrial designer, and woodworker. He illuminates the issues confronting every thoughtful maker.
