{"product_id":"fashion-myths-roman-meinhold-9783837624373","title":"Fashion Myths: A Cultural Critique","description":"In addition to products and services, multinational corporations sell myths, values, and immaterial goods. These \"meta-goods,\" which include prestige, beauty, and strength, are major components of successful marketing and advertising. Fashion ads mine deeply rooted human values, ideals, and desires, channeled through social recognition, beautification, and rejuvenation. Although referencing meta-goods is obvious to some consumers, their connection to philosophical theories of human nature is less apparent, even among the marketers and advertisers who use them. This book will appeal to researchers and students of cultural studies, media studies, marketing, advertising, fashion, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, and psychology, and to anyone interested in the operation of fashion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roman Meinhold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3837624374\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783837624373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Transcript Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/27\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.70w x 0.60d","brand":"Roman Meinhold","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110750769407,"sku":"9783837624373","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9348d11a-e4d2-4b35-8173-054bb91075dc.jpg?v=1725469664","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fashion-myths-roman-meinhold-9783837624373","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
