Spent: Sex, Evolution, and Consumer Behavior May 18, 2009

The connection between sex and consumer culture is explored in this witty, insightful book by author and evolutionary biologist Geoffrey Miller. Why do we choose to buy certain cars, magazines, music, and makeup? What do these decisions say about us? And how can we use this knowledge to make ourselves happier consumers and more responsible citizens? If you liked topics discussed in Freakonomics or The Tipping Point—this event is for you.
