Reviews

Joanna Boehnert's book shows in a masterful manner that there are no technological, ideological or other easy fixes to the contradiction between capitalism and nature. She powerfully makes the point that we need political design in order to create a better world. A must-read for everyone interested in design, ecology, communication and politics. * Christian Fuchs, Professor of Social Media at the University of Westminster, UK *
