    Corporations spend
    billions of dollars
    annually to woo teen and
    pre-teen consumers. Over
    the last 5-10 years, the
    research of these groups
    and their behaviour has
    become very focused on
    exactly how best to part
    them (or their parents)
    with their money. Alissa
    Quart takes the reader
    into the disturbing world
    of teen marketing,
    showing how they are
    taught to market to each
    other and where adults
    build careers out of
    insinuating their way
    into 'friendships' with
    teens in order to monitor
    what they wear, eat,
    listen to and talk about
    with each other. This
    compelling book looks
    into the way teens
    succumb to peer pressure
    and the constant
    commercial battering and
    the young people who
    fight back, who turn the
    tables on the cock-sure
    mega-corporations who so
    cynically strive to crack
    the codes of teen cool.
    These kids prove it isn't
    necessary to give in to
    branding, but it is a
    drop in the water when an
    entire generation is
    being raised to consume.

World On Fire
World On Fire
    Amy Chua's remarkable and
    provocative book explores
    the tensions of the
    post-Cold War globalising
    world. As global markets
    open, ethnic conflict
    worsens and democracy in
    developing nations can
    turn ugly and violent.
    Chua shows how free
    markets have concentrated
    disproportionate, often
    spectacular wealth in the
    hands of resented ethnic
    minorities -
    'market-dominant
    minorities'. Adding
    democracy to this
    volatile mix can unleash
    suppressed ethnic hatred
    and bring to power
    'ethno-nationalist'
    governments that pursue
    aggressive policies of
    confiscation and revenge.
    Chua also shows how
    individual countries may
    also be viewed as
    market-dominant
    minorities, a fact that
    may help to explain the
    rising tide of
    anti-American sentiment
    around the world and the
    visceral hatred of
    Americans expressed in
    recent acts of terrorism.


    Chua is not an
    anti-globalist. But she
    presciently warns that,
    far from making the world
    a better and safer place,
    democracy and capitalism
    - at least in the raw,
    unrestrained form in
    which they are currently
    being exported - are
    intensifying ethnic
    resentment and global
    violence, with
    potentially catastrophic
    results.

Things That Make Life Worth
Living
    What are the little
    things that make life
    worth living? A walk in
    the countryside,

    letter from a friend.
