A fascinating and highly critical meditation on the rise of verisimilitude in American culture. Frequently cited by advertising and marketing professionals. Read it and be disgusted with those who would threaten democracy in the name of commerce, or read it and marvel at the techniques of the American cultural apparatus. Highly recommended.
