A Life Against the Grain: The Autobiography of an Unconventional Economist $77.67 Ln his long and distinguished career as a writer and scholar, Julian Simon came to be known as one of the leading–and most controversial–authorities on population economics. An immensely productive writer, his work is unified by a basic core belief: that human intellect and ingenuity are ever-renewable resources in the use and preservation of natural resources. The first part of Simon’s autobiography takes the reader through his childhood, his years as an officer in the Navy, and his experiences as a copywriter in an advertising firm. Simon’s plan after receiving his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago was to be an entrepreneur, which would afford him enough money to care for his parents and allow him free time for writing fiction. Deciding to seek a professional career, in 1963 he accepted a position at the University of Illinois. The book includes substantive chapters on research methods, population economics, and immigration, and explains how Julian Simon became the economist he was, analyzing crucial periods in his life when he developed his ideas on fundamental issues. Written in an engaging and amusing manner, Julian Simon’s autobiography is both a personal memoir and a professional contribution to important ideas in economics, research methods, and demography.

Homo Zapiens $8.5 The collapse of the Soviet Union has opened up a huge consumer market, but how do you sell things to a generation that grew up with just one type of cola? When Tatarsky, a frustrated poet, takes a job as an advertising copywriter, he finds he has a talent for putting distinctively Russian twists on Western-style ads. But his success leads him into a surreal world of spin doctors, gangsters, drug trips, and the spirit of Che Guevera, who, by way of a Ouija board, communicates theories of consumer theology. A bestseller in Russia, Homo Zapiens displays the biting absurdist satire that has gained Victor Pelevin superstar status among today’s Russian youth, disapproval from the conservative Moscow literary world, and critical acclaim worldwide.

Hospitality In The Age Of Media Representation $15.62 The world overflows with stimuli. Many of these are advertising messages that will never know whether we hear them.

He is a branding expert and copywriter based in Zurich, Switzerland.

Latte Lessons $12.95 Single Life Is Full Of Questions……imponderables such as: “Is it possible to transform an addiction to reality dating shows into a substitute for actual dating?” and “Is scanning demographic lists of available men with nice (read: British-sounding) names and upscale addresses more dignified if one does it in the privacy of one’s apartment with a bottle of wine and an equally romance-challenged friend?” Not having all the answers doesn’t keep thirty-year-old Claire Duncan up at night. She loves her job as a copywriter at a small Venice Beach advertising and promotion agency-even though it’s not making her much money. She loves her hemp drawstring capris-even though they’re not getting her any dates. And she loves her mother-who in turn despairs of ever having grandchildren.
