It offers designers from disciplines such as architecture, urban design, planning, landscape, interior, and industrial design an alternative ethical framework in which to expand their thinking about their practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArguing that design today is primarily an agency driven by the momentum of globalization, embedded in economy, materialism, and utility, the book reconceptualizes the notion of virtue in design practice. Across chapters covering topics such as virtuous character, creative agency, and unsustainable practices, the book scrutinizes design through a philosophical lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ed'Anjou dissects articulations from different philosophical thinkers from antiquity to contemporary time to reveal that ethics is fundamental to everything affected by design. Countering well-established modes of postmodern relativism in design, which has led to \"defuturing\" and \"unsustainability,\" ethical realism is presented as an alternative solution. This book is written for designers, educators, researchers, and students.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philippe D'Anjou\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367136805\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367136802\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2021","brand":"Philippe D'Anjou","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086496968959,"sku":"9780367136802","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_51b7b542-d603-4c82-9d75-01930a61261b.jpg?v=1769095006","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ethical-design-intelligence-philippe-danjou-9780367136802","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
