Shopping : social and cultural perspectives / Jenny Shaw.

• Shopping in the rain -- From thrift to spendthrift : how buying turned into spending -- A la recherche des shops perdus -- Signposts and shopping milestones : too old for topshop? -- Shopping : a rough guide to gender -- Putting on a posh voice -- Conclusion : taking it all for granted.

• This book enables readers to realize the significance of their shopping memories and milestones. From a cultural perspective, Jenny Shaw explores how shopping is viewed, the history behind its 'fall from grace', its part in the common culture, its role in helping us craft new identities, hold on to old ones, adjust to change, and generally 'hold us together' both as individuals and communities.--[book cover]
