Download or read book Ad Nauseam written by Carrie McLaren and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2009-06-23 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the style and irreverence of Vice magazine and the critique of the corporatocracy that made Naomi Klein's No Logo a global hit, the cult magazine Stay Free!—long considered the Adbusters of the United States—is finally offering a compendium of new and previously published material on the impact of consumer culture on our lives. The book questions, in the broadest sense, what happens to human beings when their brains are constantly assaulted by advertising and corporate messages. Most people assert that advertising is easily ignored and doesn't have any effect on them or their decision making, but Ad Nauseam shows that consumer pop culture does take its toll. In an engaging, accessible, and graphically appealing style, Carrie McLaren and Jason Torchinsky (as well as contributors such as David Cross, The Onion's Joe Garden, The New York Times's Julie Scelfo, and others) discuss everything from why the TV program CSI affects jury selection, to the methods by which market researchers stalk shoppers, to how advertising strategy is like dog training. The result is an entertaining and eye-opening account of the many ways consumer culture continues to pervade and transform American life.
Download or read book Ad Nauseam written by Jeff Koob and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-03-26 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of information is to inform, while the goal of propaganda is to influence or persuade. It is not the intent to persuade that makes something propaganda, but the use of deceptive and manipulative techniques. Some advertising and public relations campaigns employ propaganda techniques and other psychotechnologies of influence. Jeff Koob, a psychologist, provides examples of advertisers using propaganda and other “invisible” means of persuasion. He explores the history of advertising and public relations, and focuses on how: • advertisers employ deceptive and manipulative techniques • media campaigns have become a tool of corporate social engineering • propaganda works across the spectrum of media, from print to the Internet Ad Nauseam reveals how the propaganda industry affects almost every aspect of our lives. Equip yourself with the knowledge you need to recognize the techniques of propaganda, and discover the antidote to the infotoxins in our mental environment.
