Download or read book Born to Buy written by Juliet B. Schor and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-08-19 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ads aimed at kids are virtually everywhere -- in classrooms and textbooks, on the Internet, even at slumber parties and the playground. Product placement and other innovations have introduced more subtle advertising to movies and television. Companies are enlisting children as guerrilla marketers, targeting their friends and families. Even trusted social institutions such as the Girl Scouts are teaming up with marketers. Drawing on her own survey research and unprecedented access to the advertising industry, New York Times bestselling author and leading cultural and economic authority Juliet Schor examines how a marketing effort of vast size, scope, and effectiveness has created "commercialized children." Schor, author of The Overworked American and The Overspent American, looks at the broad implications of this strategy. Sophisticated advertising strategies convince kids that products are necessary to their social survival. Ads affect not just what they want to buy, but who they think they are and how they feel about themselves. Based on long-term analysis, Schor reverses the conventional notion of causality: it's not just that problem kids become overly involved in the values of consumerism; it's that kids who are overly involved in the values of consumerism become problem kids. In this revelatory and crucial book, Schor also provides guidelines for parents and teachers. What is at stake is the emotional and social well-being of our children. Like Barbara Ehrenreich's Nickel and Dimed, Mary Pipher's Reviving Ophelia, and Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point, Born to Buy is a major contribution to our understanding of a contemporary trend and its effects on the culture.
Download or read book Meant to Be written by Rutino Lara and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2010-07-20 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We frantically started to run toward the road... All the guys were the first ones to make it to the car. I purposely stayed behind, keeping an eye on the ladies, particularly the one that was pregnant. She had looked tired most of the day and understandably so. It couldn't have been more than three hundred feet to get to the car. The only ones left to make it were her and me, and everyone else yelled out to me, 'Just leave her there or you're staying there too!' I just couldn't do it. I told myself I would rather get caught again than carry something like that on my conscience, so I picked her up and ran as fast as I possibly could. I had no strength left, but somehow that didn't matter. This is just one of the many attempts to begin a new life that author Rutino Lara trekked through. It would not be his last. Faced with a poverty-stricken existence in Mexico, Rutino took it upon himself to create a better life for his family, himself, and future family. To him, this meant escaping Mexico City to live a happier, healthier life in the USA. Compelled to overcome through danger, abuse, and corruption, his inspiring story doesn't go unnoticed. From his rock-solid faith in God, to his undying affection for his wife, this is a true rags to riches tale. Find out why Rutino Lara was Meant to Be.

Download or read book Good Toys Bad Toys written by Andrew McClary and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-02-18 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In early America, most children had only a few toys and parents received advice from family and friends on the best ways to make and use toys. By the early 1900s the Industrial Revolution was producing a new world of toys and giving more parents the wealth to buy them. Mass media also sang the praises of these new factory-made, store-bought toys, but that began to change as early as the mid-1900s when the mass media was used to inform parents of the many dangers of children's toys. Many encourage violence, sexism, racism, and some are actually unsafe and unhealthy. The development of children's toys from early America to the present time and the shifting opinions of them expressed by parents and the mass media throughout this time are the main subjects of this book. The first section discusses the many problems with toys, while the second puts these problems in historical perspective. How have these problems changed, and are still changing today? Might today's toys be about to enter a time when they will be better than ever? The third section argues that many media toy watchers are biased toward the negative, giving toys more of a black eye than they deserve, and considers the challenges that face today's parents as they try to choose the best toys for their children.
