Broad Vision: Inspired by... Images from Science
University of Westminster: 2012
Part exhibition catalogue and part educational treatise, Inspired by...Images from Science defines the approaches taken to interdisciplinary learning through the 2012 Broad Vision project and reflects on the project from the diverse positions of participants and observers.
