Description

Explore Jean Baudrillard's classic text on the meaning of consumption in contemporary culture. Originally published in 1970, this book provides a foundational look at how mass media and leisure shape our modern world. It remains a vital resource for anyone studying current debates on how consumption functions within society. This edition offers an organized discussion on mass media culture and the concept of anomie in an affluent society. It also includes a chapter on the body, highlighting Baudrillard's ability to identify important cultural subjects well before they became mainstream topics of study.
