Silent Selling

A provocative exposé of how our attention, behavior, and desires have been co-opted by the “choice box”—a curated set of options that offer a false sense of agency while funneling us down pre-determined paths controlled by a select few Choice boxes are all around us, but chances are you’ve never noticed them. Every time you click on a recommended video, rate an Uber driver, run a Google search, or invest in your 401k, you may think you’re the one calling the shots—but in reality, you’re limited to making the choices that a corporation wants you to make. Today, structured decision-making governs our lives to such an extent that we hardly see it at all. But who designs these choices, and whose interests do they serve? In Choose Your Own Captivity, historian Eli Cook introduces readers to the choice architects who first built these boxes and trapped us inside—from the maze-building eugenicist who invented the multiple-choice test to the marketing gurus who sold off our supermarket shelves to a few ultra-processed food giants. In less than a generation, architects like these have transformed a handful of online platforms into the richest businesses in the world. And by determining our options, controlling our actions, and even shaping our identities, they have laid the groundwork&nbsp;for the winner-takes-all game of digital capitalism that dominates us today. In a society built around the promise of free choice and personal responsibility, Cook argues, these hidden architects might just have the greatest power of all. A propulsive and vivid history, Choose Your Own Captivity opens readers’ eyes to the immense power of the choice box—and how to escape it.

How Corporations Built Our Choices and Sold Our Freedom

Choose Your Own Captivity

What can one city tell us about the global textile waste problem? This Open Access study is the first detailed ethnography of clothing waste infrastructures that starts where the problem starts - the Global North. Based on more than 100 interviews, cultural anthropologist Heike Derwanz follows the journey of fast fashion in Hamburg, Germany: starting with two women from different socio-economic backgrounds sorting through their wardrobes, travelling through local flea markets, eBay, church clothes banks, upcycling brands and recycling sites, only to end up in homes and waste heaps in the Global South. Bringing together human agents such as designers, social workers and vintage sellers with objects from containers, plastic sacks and internet platforms to piles of sorted textiles, this on-the-ground cultural study reveals how the global economic system of fast fashion shapes local infrastructures entangled in everyday lives. Combining material culture, waste studies and economic perspectives to scrutinize the so-called circular economy of today's global textile recycling market, Derwanz investigates what agency modern consumers really have in the lifecycle of their clothes. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Bloomsbury Open Collections Library Collective.

The Devil's Daughter

Pick up your glasses. Look at the brand on the temple. Whatever it says - be it Ray-Ban, Oakley, Prada, Chanel, Versace, Persol, Oliver Peoples, Tiffany, Burberry, Dolce and Gabbana - the money mostly goes to the same place. An Italian-French conglomerate called EssilorLuxottica that almost nobody outside the optical industry has heard of, headquartered partly in a town in the Italian Alps where a 26-year-old founder set up shop on free land in 1961. His name was Leonardo Del Vecchio. His father died before he was born. His mother put him in a Milan orphanage at seven. He left at fourteen, went to work at a tool-and-die shop, and lost part of a finger to an industrial press. He died in 2022, age 87, worth around twenty-five billion dollars. This is the story of what he built and how it works. In The Luxottica Effect you'll see how a frame that costs twenty dollars to make ends up retailing for five hundred, and why customers walk out of the store feeling good about it. You'll see why the most important acquisition Luxottica ever made wasn't a frame brand at all, it was a vision insurance company. You'll see how Ray-Ban was rebuilt from a gas station product into a global icon without changing the product. You'll see how the 2018 EssilorLuxottica merger sailed past every regulator on three continents, and what they missed. You'll see why Warby Parker, fifteen years and several hundred million dollars in, has barely dented the empire. And you'll see the underlying playbook. Five moves. Each one transferable to other industries. Some of them are already running in industries you spend money in every week. This isn't a how-to. It's a teardown. The lessons go both ways. Founders use them. Antitrust lawyers fight them. Most consumers never notice them at all. You will, after this. That's the trade.

This book simplifies the process regarding the application of usability to medical devices for new developers by providing a thought-out walkthrough of what is involved and how the expectations from the essential standards affect their work and why. Based on the authors' experiences, the information in the book provides other more seasoned experts with a wealth of insight and nuggets of new perspectives on addressing the usability of medical devices, particularly medical software.The discussion in the book is rooted in recent real-world experiences from both the manufacturer and assessment body sides-the authors provide a novel high-level "roadmap" to using usability engineering to guide development activities from initial conceptual design to research, development, and ultimately release of a medical device. They build toward this map throughout the book and ultimately present the full model. This roadmap is the result of the authors' experiences of taking a research project and launching both a medical device and a medical device business after obtaining all the necessary regulatory approvals.The book helps product developers to understand the usability requirements around their own work, and to also better understand their users and to present the expected usability information in a way that is readily understood by the auditors. Managers of such work will also greatly benefit from the discussion of the required deliverables and the goals of the usability activities. Finally, the authors ease the divide between manufacturers and healthcare professionals using medical devices. By simultaneously showing the requirements for the manufacturer's development process and also discussing the realities of work on the healthcare side, the authors facilitate collaboration.

7 Days a Parisian

Unseen photographs and private diary entries from Marilyn Monroe's closest photographer reveal the woman behind the icon.A lavishly produced tribute, this gift-ready visual biography features a lenticular cover that brings an iconic moment to life.&nbsp;Published to commemorate what would have been Monroe's 100th birthday, The Marilyn Monroe Century features rare photographs by Bruno Bernard, also known as Bernard of Hollywood, that have never been publicly released. It traces the emotional and artistic evolution of Norma Jeane Mortenson into Marilyn Monroe.&nbsp;More than a collection of photographs, The Marilyn Monroe Century unfolds as a cinematic narrative. Bernard was the only photographer who witnessed and helped shape the full arc of Norma Jeane's metamorphosis into Marilyn Monroe.Personal writings from Bernard, commentary from contemporary Hollywood voices, including Academy Award-winning director Sean Baker, and a foreword by actress, activist, and filmmaker Rose McGowan bring new emotional depth to Monroe's life and legacy.Authors Joshua John Miller, Bernard's grandson, and Mark A. Fortin open Bernard's archive for the first time to reveal the story of a lost friendship, of the appeal of fame and the drive to create the everlasting image of this American Dream.&nbsp;In 1999, The Museum of Modern Art declared Bernard's legendary photograph¿Marilyn in White-capturing Monroe on the Twentieth Century Fox backlot as her white dress billowed above a subway grate-the symbol of the century. This single image defined 1950s Hollywood glamour and continues to echo across pop culture in songs, films, artwork, and more today.Appearing inset on this book's beautiful clothbound cover, a lenticular print re-creates this famous moment-the sudden lift of Monroe's skirt, which shifts as the book is tilted up and down.Bernard was not simply the creator of this iconic image; his role in Marilyn's life was far more profound. A bond forged early in her career sparked an intimate dialogue between a young woman discovering herself and the photographer who recognized her potential long before the world did. His photographs and diary entries reveal a Marilyn rarely seen: playful, thoughtful, ambitious, and fully aware of the persona she was creating for herself.Joshua John Miller and Mark A. Fortin tell the family story behind the myth of Marilyn, through Bernard's personal diaries and previously unpublished correspondence, as well as memories and personal perspectives. They chronicle the complex friendship between two outsiders who found solace in one another.&nbsp;
