Abstract

In The Philosophy of Design, Glenn Parsons provides a well-structured discussion of the philosophy of design, drawing upon his extensive work on beauty, aesthetics and nature. The book shows design as a valid and important area of philosophical inquiry, covering a range of social, epistemological and ethical issues. Mona Sloane finds this an essential read for anyone looking for an engaging and accessible mapping of existing philosophical scholarship on design.
