This is a really great book with some very interesting articles that more people should read. Too bad it's out of print!

Tüketim toplumu çok iyi anlatılmış 👍🏻zaman değişse de insan davranışları hiç değişmiyor sanki :/ geleceğe umut ile bakmayı diliyorum.

An intriguing exploration of how daily life has evolved, and the philosophical and ethical implications of those changes within modern capitalist society. I read it in preparation for my move to North Carolina and my new role at Duke University, and found its insights both timely and thought-provoking.
