352pp, index, 417 ills (300 col). Or gray cloth in jacket. As new. Published to coincide with a travelling exhibition from the Wolfsonian, a Miami institution devoted to examining the social, political and aesthetic significance of objects produced between 1885 & 1945. The book looks at the ways that political, industrial and cultural leaders have employed design in their programs of reform and their efforts to shape public opinion. Shows how design has been a vital tool in acclimatizing people to life in the modern world and helping to form a sense of national identity, particularly in European countries, through local crafts and vernacular buildings.
