In this book, Benjamin R. Barber, claims that the success of capitalism today threatens democracy, responsibility, and citizenship. Barber goes into depth about "infantization" in which he explains is spreading rapidly through societies globally. He then ties everything into his theory that consumers, themselves, are being consumed by marketers.
Overall, I think this book was rather a bore. His writing style isn't too complex, but he tends to ramble throughout the book. I would not recommend this book unless you're really into business and marketing, which is why I rated it a 2 star. batman <-- LOOKY, GUYS, IT'S A COOL BATMAN SMILEY! ^_______^
