The author has been called "the Margaret Mead of shopping" and this is a bright, ironic, funny and shrewd portrait of the shopping mall, "America's gift to personal consumption". Malls are now world wide, and they have changed the way the world shops.
Surprising and insightful it "will deepen our understanding of how we live, work, play and spend".
