Outside the Skin

Systems Approaches to Society's Larger Structural Issues

Beschreibung

This book examines systems dynamics from the perspective of my own triangulated model comprised of commons environments (those shared environments at risk for over use or degradation), the institutions we design to manage those commons and the human behavior associated with our investment in the triad.

Darla V. Lindberg is a registered architect and a Professor of Architecture in the Department of Architecture at The Pennsylvania State University. She's the first woman in the over 100-year history of the department to be tenured and promoted and then to be promoted to Full Professor. She recently held a two-year Endowed Chair of Design Innovation for her work in systems dynamics as it affects thesis thinking in design. She also gave a TED talk on the invitation, "What motivates influential people?" She grew up on a 1500-acre grain farm in North Dakota where, as natural systems farmers, life and living were both seamless and expansive. Located in the middle of the Bakken Shale, one of the largest oil developments in the U.S., she witnessed the horrors of coal strip mining in that powerfully productive landscape. Not surprisingly, her undergraduate architectural thesis tackled environmentalism, strip coal mining, land reclamation, and corporate greed in the design of a Scheduled and Unscheduled Maintenance Facility and Headquarters for North American Coal Corporation.
