The Rebel SellHow The Counter Culture Became Consumer Culture

Format: Hardback

Condition: Poor Condition — £1.31
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

ON REBELLION: 'rebellion is one of the most powerful sources of distinction in the modern world. As a result, people are willing to pay good money for a piece of it, just as they are willing to pay for access to any other form of social status.' ON THE WORKPLACE: 'What people yearn for these days is no longer an old--fashioned 'status' job, like being a Doctor. The 'cool job' has become the holy grail of the modern economy. Corporate America has been tuned in to this for a long time. A visitor from the '50s would not recognise the modern no--collar workplace, with its casual dress codes and flexible working hours, designed to reflect the ebb and flow of creative ideas. The whole thing is like a hippie commune under professional management.' ON THE NATURE OF COOL: 'It is best to think of cool as the central status hierarchy in contemporary urban society. And like traditional forms of status such as class, cool is an intrinsically positional good. Just as not everyone can be upper class and not everyone can have good taste, not everyone can be cool.'
