The book explains how and why the design industry lost its way, and how to re-ignite the idealism that once made it a force for good.</p> <p><i>Make the World a Better Place </i>describes a set of moral principles, based on our shared humanity, that can be used to create “good” designs: designs that reduce harm, increase well-being, advance knowledge, promote equality, address injustice, and build supportive, compassionate relationships and communities.</p> <p>Dr. Kozma applies philosophy, psychology, sociology, and history to the world of design, including:</p> <ul> <li>Examples and case studies of designs—both good and bad</li> <li>Seven principles of good design, based on the impact designs have on people</li> <li>An approach to design as a “moral dialog among co-creators,” in which the seven principles can be applied to intentionally improve the world</li> <li>Comprehensive explorations of a person-resource-activity model that explains how technology shapes designs</li> <li>Detailed analyses of the strengths and pitfalls of five design traditions, which include the scientific, technical-analytic, human-centered, aesthetic, and social movement traditions</li> </ul>
