{"product_id":"his-and-hers-roger-horowitz-9780813918020","title":"His and Hers: Gender, Consumption, and Technology","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe pathbreaking essays in this collection explore the history of consumption by synthesizing discrete historical literatures on consumer culture, gender, and the history of technology. Luxury hotels and the chocolate industry are among the diverse array of topics these authors use to demonstrate that consumption is both a material and a cultural process. Production and consumption become equally inextricable under close analysis. Tools from both the history of technology and gender studies illuminate how these categories intersect. Although broad social and technological trends influence the outcome of these stories, the authors emphasize the agaency of particular groups, including consumers, workers, manufacturers, and the \"mediators\" who communicate between producers and consumers. This volume will be of interest to historians in a wide range of fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roger Horowitz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0813918022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780813918020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Virginia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/29\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.07w x 0.76d","brand":"Roger Horowitz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059830288639,"sku":"9780813918020","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2dca9d10-ec58-473f-97f5-0466d60728ff.jpg?v=1685060572","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/his-and-hers-roger-horowitz-9780813918020","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
