Rezensionen

'This book masterfully combines cutting-edge research, findings from practice, and real-world examples of how design approaches are being used to improve societal outcomes across the globe. It introduces new avenues for pursuing design-based policies and is an essential resource for anyone exploring social innovation and design processes as a tool for meaningful public sector reform. Christian Bason has successfully delivered a volume that captures the essence of design and social innovation in policy development and offers useful lessons for those faced with the challenge of serving in the twenty-first century.'
