Sinopse

This book examines the theoretical foundations of the processes of planning and design. When peopleá- alone or in groups - want to solve problems or improve their situation, they make plans. Horst Rittel studied this process of making plans and he developed theories - including his notion of 'wicked problems' - that are used in many fields today. From product design, architecture and planning - where RittelâÇÖs work was originally developed - to governmental agencies, business schools and software design, RittelâÇÖs ideas are being used.áThis book collects previously unavailable work of RittelâÇÖs within the framework of a discussion of RittelâÇÖs theories and philosophical influences.
