“Open Design Now: Why Design Cannot Remain Exclusive surveys this emerging field for the first time.

They examine new business models and issues of copyright, sustainability and social critique. Case studies show how projects ranging from the RepRap self-replicating 3D-printer to $50 prosthetic legs are changing the world.”
