Publisher Description

A Tenth Anniversary Edition of Naomi Klein's No Logo with a New Introduction by the Author NO LOGO was an international bestseller and "a movement bible" (The New York Times). Naomi Klein's second book, The Shock Doctrine, was hailed as a "master narrative of our time," and has over a million copies in print worldwide. In the last decade, No Logo has become an international phenomenon and a cultural manifesto for the critics of unfettered capitalism worldwide. As America faces a second economic depression, Klein's analysis of our corporate and branded world is as timely and powerful as ever. Equal parts cultural analysis, political manifesto, mall-rat memoir, and journalistic exposé, No Logo is the first book to put the new resistance into pop-historical and clear economic perspective. Naomi Klein tells a story of rebellion and self-determination in the face of our new branded world.

"A very good read for those interested in how brands are more than just logo representations. Brands have also premeated into various aspects of our lives - where our public and, with the advent of the internet, even our private spaces are branded. The book explores the ethics of branded space and the ethics of businesses moving away from producing goods to pure marketing, prefering to farm out the production to the third world or in effect, to where labour is cheap."

Quotes

  • “No Logo has been a pedagogical godsend. I used it to illustrate contemporary applications of complex cultural theories in an introductory social science sequence. It worked so beautifully, word about the book spread across campus, and other students were begging to read it in their sections of the course.

    — Bruce Novak, Division of Social Sciences, The University of Chicago
  • A complete, user-friendly handbook on the negative effects that 1990s überbrand marketing has had on culture, work, and consumer choice.

    — The Village Voice
  • The Das Kapital of the growing anti-corporate movement.

    — The London Observer
  • Klein is a sharp cultural critic and a flawless storyteller. Her analysis is thorough and thoroughly engaging.

    — Newsweek.com
  • No Logo is an attractive sprawl of a book describing a vast confederacy of activist groups with a common interest in reining in the power of lawyering, marketing, and advertising to manipulate our desires.

    — The Boston Globe

    " One of those books that corresponded to the times. I should fish it out and read it again sometime. This was when the EU was new (or maybe wasn't born yet?), and we were just starting to notice that corporations had gone multinational, outsourcing all their production. "

    " Very good book on narrating samples of capitalism dark side. Very provocative and sharp. Will open your mind deeper about how things are working in the world. Careful not to be influenced just like that, you might need to read the counter book on pro-globalization to balance the view. "

    " It's a good book with a powerful message--corporations control the world and our minds, but after reading it, I was depressed and at a total loss for what to do about the problems presented. Imagine reading The Omnivore's Dilemma in a world without farmers' markets and you get the gist. "

    " A very important book. It seems that most people don't realize that the U.S.A. and Canada completely gave up manufacturing and virtually nothing is made in the two countries anymore. The treatment of those we are exploiting to continue our crazed consumerism should make us all ashamed. "
