The fields of Design and Science and Technology Studies (STS) have informed and inspired one another for decades, with scholars frequently moving between them. Although substantial scholarship in Design draws on STS, and vice versa, there is comparatively little work that critically examines the interplay between these fields in depth. Enfolding Design & STS does precisely this, and is a significant and timely contribution to both disciplines. Wilkie and Michael are uniquely positioned to provide this analysis and insight, given their extensive experience working across and between Design and STS. This book will serve as a valuable resource for scholars and students, offering a framework for collaboration and shaping future research trajectories.
