Opis

This book proposes a new and emerging field of interdisciplinary research and practice: ´mobilities design´. It suggests that beneficial outlooks to both mobilities and design studies can be articulated by weaving together the considerate unpacking of a world on the move from mobilities research with design´s experimental and cr
