Dear Jurgen and list,
True, there isn't much written on Transdisciplinarity in general, and even much less on Transdisciplinarity and Design.
Just pointing to you a forthcoming chapter I submitted for a collective publication, "Design Studies in a Transdisciplinary Perspcetive", co-edited by Prof. Basarab Nicolescu (Paris) and Prof. Alfonso Montuori (Los Angeles), to be soon published by Hampton Press.
Professor Nicolescu is the Chairman Founder of the CIRET (Centre international de recherches et d'études transdisciplinaires), a multi-lingual gathering of 21st intellectual explorers, exchanging from the five continents views and suggestions on how to better steer the planet through present troubled waters... For sure, Professor Nicolescu, a CNRS Researcher in Quantum Physics, will be very pleased to see many designers join the Centre and contribute to explore further the transdisciplinary aspects of design and designing.
