The Great Takeover

The Great Takeover:
 How materialism, the media and markets now dominate our lives 
Carol Craig

How materialism, the media and markets now dominate our lives

Carol Craig


This book describes the dominance of materialist values, the media and business in all our lives and how this is leading to a loss of  individual and collective well-being

Covering psychology, politics and economics, Carol Craig looks  at many of the big issues of our times – debt, inequality, political  apathy, loss of self-esteem, pornography and the rise of celebrity  culture. The conclusion is simple and ultimately hopeful – we can change  our values and our lives.


The second edition includes a new section on the impact that the film The True Cost had on the author and how fast fashion is having a  devastating effect on the global environment and workers' lives.   


This book is available as a download only.  See below.
