Description - California: Designing Freedom by Justin McGuirk

This book examines California's enormous impact on contemporary design, from 1960s counterculture to Silicon Valley's tech culture. On a more expansive level, it explores the idea that California has pioneered tools of personal liberation - from LSD to iPhones. This ambitious survey brings together political posters and portable devices, but also looks at how user interface designers are shaping some of our most common daily experiences. Californian products have influenced contemporary life to such an extent that in some ways we are now all Californians.
