Moreover, the author is so convincing in his viewpoints that now i need to find and read something completely opposite to restore the balance in my mind. As i understand it, the  real world for Victor Papanek is the world of developing countries and countries of the third world. He is certain about the idea that any human concidering him- or herself a Designer must contribute to find decisions against danger, hunger, deseases, poverty, misery e t.c. for those people who have  needs , not just wishes or desires.
