Design Thinking for Resurgent Bharat  (Hardcover, Dr Mihir Bholey)

Design, an ancient human endeavor, evolved into a profession in the early twentieth century when Walter Gropius founded the Bauhaus. He aimed to unify craftsmen, artists, and architects to break down the futile class distinctions prevailing in the fascinating realm of creativity. Inherently interdisciplinary, design initially bridged art, craft, architecture, and technology to solve product and communication issues. However, over time, its scope has expanded significantly. Today, design’s creative and innovative approaches address challenges in public policy, climate change, sustainable development, urbanization, healthcare, and more. This book Design Thinking for Resurgent Bharat explores the foundational elements of design, such as aesthetics, creativity, innovation, and technology, through both Eastern and Western lenses. It delves into applying design thinking to public policy to enhance Bharat’s resurgence and improve the nation’s quality of life as it enters its Amrit Kaal.
