Human Design is a pseudoscientific [1] [2] new age practice, described as a holistic self-knowledge system. [3] It combines astrology , the Chinese I Ching , Judaic Kabbalah , Vedic philosophy and modern physics .
Alphonse Chapanis (March 17, 1917 – October 4, 2002) was an American pioneer in the field of industrial design, and is widely considered one of the fathers of ergonomics or human factors – the science of ensuring that design takes account of human characteristics.
Human-centered design has its origins at the intersection of numerous fields including engineering, psychology, anthropology and the arts. As an approach to creative problem-solving in technical and business fields its origins are often traced to the founding of the Stanford University design program in 1958 by Professor John E. Arnold who first proposed the idea that engineering design should ...

1974: The lithium-ion battery is invented by M. Stanley Whittingham, and further developed in the 1980s and 1990s by John B. Goodenough, Rachid Yazami and Akira Yoshino. It has impacted modern consumer electronics and electric vehicles. [507] 1974: The Rubik's cube is invented by Ernő Rubik which went on to be the best selling puzzle ever. [508]

Modern aeroplane design is based on those discoveries and on the importance of cambered wings, also proposed by Cayley. [7] He constructed the first flying model aeroplane and also diagrammed the elements of vertical flight. [8] He also designed the first glider reliably reported to carry a human aloft.
The modern form of a design argument is put forth by intelligent design. Proponents of intelligent design often cite the fine-tuning observations that (in part) preceded the formulation of the anthropic principle by Carter as a proof of an intelligent designer. Opponents of intelligent design are not limited to those who hypothesize that other ...
