N2  - "This book investigates repair as a contemporary expression of empowerment, agency, and resistance to our unmaking of the world and our environment. A collection of timely new scholarship, this edited volume is multidisciplinary in its approach, presenting repair as an act, metaphor, and foundation for opening up a dialogue about design's role in proposing alternative social, environmental, and economic futures. This thematically expansive and richly illustrated book, with over 100 visuals, features an international, interdisciplinary group of contributors from across the design spectrum whose voices and artwork speak to multiple forms of repair as entry points for sparking novel insights into how we might attend to our broken social and physical worlds. Organized into reparative thinking and practices, it features thirty long and short essays, photo essays, and interviews, representing projects and research by artists, designers, architects, museum professionals, sociologists, anthropologists, historians, business analysts, and entrepreneurs. Chapters focus on reparative responses to fractured systems, relationships, cities, architecture, objects, and more. Repair will encourage students, academics, researchers and practitioners in art, design and architecture practice and theory, cultural studies, environment and sustainability, to discuss, engage and rethink the act of repair and its impact on our society and environment"--
