An open-access textbook on designing sustainable product-service systems and distributed economies — solutions that are environmentally, socially and economically sound, and reachable by everyone. A rare book that holds three of the SDF's four mottos at once: Sustainability, Social Responsibility and Economics. Published by Springer as part of the Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering series, the book introduces design for Sustainable Product-Service Systems and Sustainable Distributed Economies as tools for training designers to create environmentally, socially and economically sustainable solutions accessible to everyone. It combines a conceptual framework with practical design guidelines and international case studies.
