Published by Routledge and available for pre-order here, Pathways to Well-Being in Design: Examples from the Arts, Humanities and the Built Environment recognises that the distinction between academics and practitioners often becomes blurred, where, when working together, a fusion of thoughts and ideas takes place and provides a powerful platform for dialogue.
Providing new insights into the approaches and issues associated with promoting well-being, the book's multi-disciplinary coverage invites readers to consider these ideas within the framework of their own work.
Edited by Richard Coles, Sandra Costa and Sharon Watson of Birmingham City University, the book's twelve chapters are authored by academics who are involved in practice or are working with practitioners and features real world case studies which cover a range of situations, circumstances, environments, and social groups.
Pathways to Well-Being in Design responds to those wishing to enquire further about well-being taking the reader through different circumstances to consider approaches, discussing practice and theory, real world and virtual world considerations.
