'Drawing upon decades of experience and examples from his own practice, Yrjö Engeström provides a comprehensive guide which explains the principles that underpin his work. In an age of detachment and disruption, this work not only provides a powerful framework for scholars to engage but also one which focuses on providing conceptual tools which empower and support the development of agency.' David Allen, University of Leeds
