Advertising: Information or Manipulation? (Issues in Focus)

Rating:
Summary: A great way to learn about the consequences of advertising!
Review: While doing a report on advertising, I came across this book and realized that it had enough information for my whole 4-page essay. "Advertising: Information or Manipulation?" talks about exactly what is promised in the title: the effects of advertising. This book address the title question from many angles: the effect on children, liquor and tobacco advertisments, and places that companies advertise to get you to notice their ad. This book is a must-read for anyone who needs any information on advertising for any reason, either for a school report or for launching a small business. This book was a lifesaver for me when I needed the information to complete my report, since all the information came from one, easy-to-understand, straighforward source.
