Innovation by Experiment

The present book addresses the field of researching design. It is authored by an international team around Pelin Celik and Gerhard Kampe, who focused generally on scientific courage, exemplified by contributions that submit an extraordinary wide scope, ranging from depictions of processes to an explanation of semantic aspects. Especially the thematic amplitude of this book is striking. It refers to the society as a whole. The link between these multifaceted approaches is their fundamental mind-set: It is about the lust of taking a chance on something totally new facing the risk of failing. This extraordinary book encourages following this pattern, power by inspiration. No doubt that the ideas of the first special issue of the Zwischen den Welten edition will fall on fertile ground crossing the limits of researching design. So this book is truly extraordinary because it adresses an audience beyond its discipline.
