In a world dominated by gallery or tool boiks, Thinking Design is a unique book that critically examines contemporary issues, draws on larger prespectives and leads to philosophical understanding. A series of articles illustrates the need for broad-based, socially well integrated and, most imporantly, humane design. Its contents range from barefoot design to Gandhian semiotics connected with India mythology. The book`s non-linear arrangement and lucid arguments are balanced with case studies and sprinkled with witty stories of Mullah Nasiruddin. Industrial Designer Singanapalli Balaram is presently a professor at the National Institute of Design, chairing the Knowledge Management Centre; an invited member of the Advisory Board of Design Issues, USA, contributory author of the Universal Design Handbook published by McGraw Hill and Fellow of the society of Industrial Designers of India.
