This fourth edition has a fresh thematic focus on the future, with material relating to planning, decision-making, design and invention, hope, and waiting. More space is devoted to contemporary topics, and there is new coverage of subjects ranging from white nationalism, right-wing populism, and natural disasters to surgical training, hacker conferences, and the gig economy. Each chapter contains a rich variety of case studies that have been updated throughout.
The book includes a number of features to support student learning, including:
A wealth of color images
Definitions of key terms and further reading suggestions in the margins
Questions for discussion/review and boxed summaries at the end of every chapter
An extensive glossary, bibliography, and index.
Additional resources are provided via a comprehensive companion website.
